when you've lived in a house for two YEARS, and still don't recognize your house key.

you're hopping up and down at the door, about to pee your pants, and still have to try EVERY key on the ring!

you come home from the store with five things NOT on the list, and WITHOUT the one thing you WENT for, and only thing you really NEEDED!

you wear elastic-waist pants so you can pull 'em down faster when it's time to go pottie.

you get odd looks from people at the store, like "Isn't it a bit EARLY in the day to be hittin' the BOTTLE, lady?" when you stagger a bit in the checkout line.

you get TIRED of explaining that you don't have Muscular Dystrophy.

you keep a complete and detailed log of symptoms, but forget to bring it to your Neuro appointment.

you're THRILLED when the local store gets a scooter for shoppers.

you're PEEVED as HECK when folks in a hurry use the HANDICAPPED parking "Oh this'll just take a few minutes!" and you find you want them to have MS for just a few minutes...
