I do know that having spasms is not pleasant since I live there. Oh where is that, you so boldly ask? Nah you didn’t but if you did I would say in SPASM WORLD, my dear friend!
Or perhaps the terminology is they live within me?
And I mostly do live on the land, and so I suppose I really do know where the land of spasm is, got that?
Is this gibberish to you?
Perhaps, I should define what a spasm is, hmm?
Thesaurus gives, of course, other words that mean the same thing, shudder, tremor, contraction, and seizure, any of these ringing a bell of recognition with you? But wait there is more…ripple, paroxysm, and a twinge, I suppose it is considered a petite one, hmm?
Who amongst us cannot relate to that occasional leg cramp or stitch in one’s side, hmm?
But the ones that come along as part of a neurological illness are more sincere and consistent and strike when you least expect them to and is usually a daily multiple event and some times in very odd locations… I know, I know I am making them sound oh so exotic and now you are clamoring for the want and desire of them too, hmm?
Feel left out? Of this somewhat unique to me and my buds who suffer from one of the many symptoms of our not so delightful experiences and chronic ailments, huh?
Oh there is medication for this fun thingy that also can wake you out of a deep sleep, that is if you finally fell off to that place, some call dreamland, hmm?
Baclofen is my drug of my doctors’ choices and I am dosed with it throughout the day, next step is a pump or surgical gadget implanted into you! Hopefully, I am not there yet.
Sure there are many other ‘anti-spasmodic’ drugs out there for any whom so desire to experiment while under a physicians care…but they are all basically the same.
Gyrations, kicking out, feeling pulled to one side while trying hard not to be, are some of the dance/body moves/trends that are not socially acceptable within most public places.
No music is playing either usually when these crazy wild happenings occur.
I suspect many have music playing most of the day and can pretend that they are just choreographing a neuvo latest concept for the masses to catch on to and virulently pass on? Gosh, wouldn’t that be something dazzling and trendy too, hmm? HA!
You have your ideas and I will have mine…
It’s not like those of us have a choice about our dance trends that most of us you will find doing sitting or lying down, performing these fabulous acts…
Now, Tobi you’re sounding sexy!
‘Fabulous Acts’, next Tobi legs going out from under you will become as exciting as the Limbo! You know the dance that people, yell or sing, “How low can you go?”
Nah, some don’t get my weird sense of humor, hmm?
It might appear forced to some who also have many of the described symptoms, which to most are never ever funny and can even be quite painful…
Do you all remember the expression, “I laughed till I cried”, no?
You know I never did either, but if I recall I may have gotten it slightly wrong, which I do, do frequently these days… It could have been, “I laughed so hard that I cried?”, no either?
Well, this is just downright ridiculous, once I think that I got it right someone tells me it’s wrong, huh?
What’s with that?
Any-who, that’s what I am trying to do but in reverse, got it?
You see I have not gotten my biopsy scheduling resolved yet. I did have a nibble, shame on you I said ‘nibble’! Yes, a government agency along with a non-profit will let me know within the week…got to find some new distractions while waiting, any suggestions?
On that, leaving you all hanging with me too, allow me to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count all your blessings and share all your overages and we will too!
And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.
