Systematic Lupus Erythematosus (I had to look up the spelling of that, sheesh that name) or SLE. My lupus has affected me in various ways, usually the kidneys are involved. My last flare up involved an inflammation of the spinal cord, so I'm paraplegic now. That's not common at all, so I'm sure it's not something…

I was just saying they tell me so I know to play along, not to ask permission or anything.

I was scared this was gonna end with your teacher being an asshole and forcing you to read.

That's definitely worse. Although he did get married so who knows, maybe he'll get up to her level eventually.

What if you've been invited to Solange's wedding and she asks you to wear white? Do you wear black to ensure everyone knows you're definitely not a virgin?

When my sister was younger, first grade I think, her class put on a nativity play. She and one of her classmates played black sheep. My sister is Puerto Rican and the other girl playing the black sheep is black, and every other child in the class is white. I don't think the teacher did that consciously, but I also…

J Boog was clearly the best one.

I didn't always do that, because I figured it would be annoying to be greeted 80,000 different times in one store.

My last boyfriend preferred shower sex to all other sex (ugh) and he was black.

Many times during shower sex I have thought, Ugh now I'm gonna have to do my hair again.

Yes a million times to keep it quick. My last boyfriend loved shower sex but would take fucking forever to finish and all I could think about is how sore my legs and arms were.
