"are you normal?" in 2017. got it.

um. what?

I seriously got asked that the other day it was yes must’ve been yesterday. So I was exiting Whole Foods in their lobby area. thing and a woman stopped me and went ‘omygod’ annoyed. and I waited and i’m thinkin ‘yes?’. and yes. she asked me that. I didn’t have time to think about it i just went a bit loudly ‘I get cold really easily!’ and then left but. i was on my way out anyway so. My next response would’ve been ‘everyone’s different’. [well they are. some people are colder then others i don’t think it’s a bad thing.].
i don’t think. in recent memory i’ve ever been asked that. I really hope she doesn’t have kids. No I don’t mean it like that. I mean. in that bc. No one should be subjected to that. If she’s like that towards me then.......... and she wasn’t even nice about it either. I didn’t attack her I wasn’t mean. I only defended myself which I have the right to do particularly. in the way that I did. long as I’m not hurtin anybody I don’t see the problem. Yeah I’m a bit off but um. wow. Or maybe even if she does have kids she’s not like that towards them I don’t know I have no idea. I would never say that to someone I don’t know. or even someone I do know. just. I just wouldn’t say it regardless.
i’m sorry but what the fukin hell.
what right did she have to ask me that? well. she didn’t far as i’m aware of. would she say that to a lesbian friend of hers god I hope not. [doesn’t have to be a lesbian. could be a Jewish person or anyone else who’s thought of as ‘different’ in some way.].
And furthermore. while I’m going on about this. it’s really none of her damn business.
well Pride’s comin up in a few months. and I hope that lady’s ready for it. cause people will be storming [well. not literally] the streets. [and not everyone partakes in Pride. and that’s ok.]. cause this is me. this is us. watch out cause here I come. [yes queen. it’s a thing that young people say at times.].
isn’t this the generation where we’re taught by people like David Bowie that it’s ok to be different? or am I wrong here? Yes. I like that I’m quirky. It’s what makes me interesting. I like quirky people. I like the oddities of the world. It’s hard being different and it sucks and it hurts. But this is me and I march to the beat I drum. maybe not her beat obviously but we all have our own rhythm. everyone’s different as I say at times.
And you know why, I would never say that to someone? bc I know what it’s like to be that person. to be a sideshow act. [well. again not literally.]. I’ve always been different and I always will be.
It hurts a lot actually. Sure we all act like things don’t bother us but truth is. Some, more then others. I already have depression thanks. that’s. ....... that’s great. Maybe she herself is a lesbian again I have no idea.
Take me as I am or don’t take me at all. Take me or leave me. But before someone does. Think about what they’re really giving up on. I’m not perfect and I’m not presuming I am here. I’m difficult and I’m tenacious and I’m. you know, this that and the other thing. But I would never. hopefully say that.
But ya know. She can’t actually fix me. bc I’m not broken. there’s actually nothing wrong w/ me. [this, is from an ep. of the new season of ‘will & grace’.]. Sure I’m a little off but that’s not ‘wrong’, exactly. and maybe she’s not looking to fix me. but she came off like she was.
At the end of the day. All we can do is keep being who we are. whoever that is.
[well] it’s like dr. seuss said. those who matter don’t mind and those who mind don’t matter. oh i get it. she probably matters to someone.
I am what I am. and that’s Miss Abnormal to you.
it’s a bit funny, in a way. for those who share that sense of humour. like yeah i know i’m. odd not the first time i’ve. been made aware of that not tellin me somethin i don’t already know. join the club. um. ok.
but that was. not neccessary and that was. also completely uncalled for.
i still want to confront her. it’s probably a good thing i didn’t see her after that.
