Bitchslapping Autism

This picture is a giant lie, because OH MY GOD do you see how skinny my arm looks?!

Today’s autism walk was a complete success! I was very happy to be part of it, and even happier knowing our team kicked ass at fund raising. A big thanks to my readers who donated, and to Rlo who carried my bag for most of the walk. I rewarded him by not making fun of his sunglasses.

oh you’re sexy and you better know it! (straight girl here)
um, how does one pronounce Rlo?
Been wandering the same thing myself.
Wondering…
A man who carries your purse is one in a million. My wife says this all the time and I wonder if it’s true or if she’s suckering me into it. I carry the thing either way.
You two would make a cute couple.
He’s totally hot!!!
Where was this picture taken? Like what building is that behind you.
Sweet glasses!
You need to teach Rlo some ways of the world. Slip him a roofie. I think he is hot… and I’m a lesbo. (You are hotter, though.)
That’s why you should spell it R-lo, then people will get it.
Someone once told me they thought Sra was pronounced Ess-Rah, and I was like, no that would be spelled S-ra.
Misha: That’s very kind of you to say. Thank you. Rlo’s name is pronounced, “Hey you, make me some chocolate cake ASAP.”
Range: It’s also pronounced, “NO, I will not watch bike porn with you.”
Anon: Rlo is a one in a million with or without the purse carrying skills. The boy can put up with me. He deserves a medal, or a night off. Both of which will not happen.
A: We would. But I can’t couple with anyone who won’t share their sperm with me.
New Reader: First of all welcome, and second he’s mine and you cannot have him. Unless, of course, you pay me. I accept chocolate, cash and Spice Girls albums.
Bunnie: Cottonwood High School.
Rick: For the love of baby Jesus, DO NOT ENCOURAGE HIM!
Sterkworks: As usual, you’re absolutely correct: I am hot.
Sra: That extra dash is so much more work.
Yes he is hott. So are you Sarah, even if you do have skinny little arms.
I have lots of chocolate…
And I kind of like the glasses.
New reader here. I started reading a week ago from Dooce’s website. Your honesty cracks me up. This is my new favorite blog…
Nice job on the autism front, and yes, please do something about Rlo’s glasses. Yikes!
Good job on the walk. Good cause too. I was going, but I opted to do the Asthma walk at Sugar House park instead. I was lucky enough to tweak my right calf muscle, so now it matches my left, which I managed to tweak last week! Now I can gimp around with two pulled calf muscles! I’m excited. And apparently hopelessly out of shape.
Rlo has a sense of style with those glasses. It’s important to be unique, and should be encouraged.
BTW, those are some seriously skinny arms.
I’m also a new reader from Dooce’s website. Great pics – can I ask where you got the hat? Love it!
Why aren’t you dating this guy?
Nobody tell Sarah, but I have have a serious crush on Rlo’s glasses and I would like to know where he got them because they are rad.
I have sunglasses like that. A friend stole them from another friend and left them in my car. Now they are mine.
Well done Sarah! & Good job on getting Rlo to carry your bag =o)
Hi we found you site very interesting and thought we would share with you a patch we have been using on our autistic daughter. It’s made an unbelievable difference in her attention span & behavior. It’s called Aura Patches and is not a chemical patch. Check them out @ http://www.internapure.com/Blog/2009/07/09/aura-patch-autism-protocol/ keep up the good work.
