Someone accused me of lying today. it started out as a pretty good conversion originally. we were talking about anime. The hour was getting not just a little late but very late as it was after 1 am my time heading towards two and i was more then a little tired. the work day on Saturday was form about 7:30 am until around 1:00 pm. this was not all that bad but to ensure i got there on time i set my alarm for 5:30 am and by 6:30 or 6:40 i need to be on the road heading for work. i worked my day as security and then ran a few errands.

By the time i got home it was getting late but Sunday was my day off as i work security for a bank. i decided to go on second life and discovered there was going to be a meeting in one of my groups. i went the the group house and the meet was already in progress. i really enjoyed it and even thought the meeting ended there were still some people around to talk with. i knew it was late but i figured hey i don't get much time to enjoy second life why not make the most of it. a few hours later one of the two i having a conversation with asked mere where i was from. i told them i mean i had now reason not too. then the said that considering were i was from there was no reason for me to be talking as i was.

it was about then that i realized how badly my control over my spelling was slipping. during the best of times my spelling is less then good. it just borders on acceptable and all. i apologize and realized that it was already well after midnight i'd been up around twenty hours. i tried to explain my situation and said that i should probably head to bed. the gist of what was said by one of them was " so you've been up almost a day ? well i've been up four two why aren't i spelling as badly as you then? " i told them that they couldn't judge me as if i was them because we are all different and so forth but they went on to call mo not just a liar but a fucking liar. said that i couldn't work in a bank and so forth because of my spelling.

this was intolerable. i didn't claim to be rich i didn't say i was something i'm not i simply told thing how they were. how is saying i'm working security in a bank some sort of glamorous sought after job or position? answer it's not it's drudgery that keeps me fed and with a roof over my head. i figured people will believe what they want even so i told them look i'm not lying. this person then assumed i was doing the blame game going to blame the teacher form my troubles. it's not like that i had to ear my way through school i need help.

ECHO http://www.echoja.org/ then SMA came to me in 8th grade and tested me. i passed 8th grade and was part way though freshman year in high school when they came back. they set me up with a computer to help me over come spelling and handwriting difficulty. this is how i passed high school. i had to earn every grade i got but i did the work and got my self into collage. since high school the spell checker has been my best friend. even when filling out incident reports i still need them and to hear this person calling me a liar over some thing i have struggled with since third grade? it hurt but it also angered Me here hours later i'm still angry and and now after given my self time to cool off some i have to post this to let myself vent so i'm sorry if this upset you to read a whinny post but i need to let it out.

long story short just because someone has a problem or an LD doesn't mean that they lie about themselves or what they do.
