Hi! This is Johnny again. I am sitting here in my bedroom, watching the rains come down. It is storming out, and I can't go out to play. (Not that I COULD, you know; kinda' hard to play outside when one is in a chair, like I am???) I am feeling pretty good today; am not having too much trouble with my MD today (for NOW).
I have been doing quite well ever since the seizure; haven't had any since then. Hopefully this new medicine that I am has kicked them in the butt; I really hate having seizures...talk about a way to ruin one's day!...
I was watching tv, "SpongeBob SquarePants" (I LOVE that show; "Sponge" is too funny! LOL), but then Ronee' the Monster came in, and now she is listening to her new cd single by Tiffany Evans. So I had to turn off the tv, which made me mad! Ronee' is singing along with the music, and I guess she is pretending to BE Tiffany Evans or something! She keeps making goofy faces as she sings, like she is in pain or something, and it is funny to watch her! I can't help but TO laugh! She looks so crazy when she makes her faces when she sings! LOL I wasn't mad at her too long, but still, I HATE it when she comes barging in and starts interrupting my tv watching!
I said the past several times I would write about my friend Jose' Varquez, but it turns out I haven't! (Sorry, Jose'!) He has been my best bud ever since I was going to Eastview Elementary, and he was the first kid who didn't pick on me because of my being in a wheelchair; but the teasing got to be so bad I had to change schools. Now I am going to MorningSide Academy, and the kids treat me much better there; but I still miss seeing Jose' at school! But when we AREN'T in school, he comes over on the weekends and we play with my cars or play video games together. He's really cool; he is the one who taught me how to burp the ABC song, and he also taught me some really corny jokes. He lives with his abuelo, and at home he speaks Spanish, but when he is with me or at school, he talks in English. He was born in Texas, and he came here when he was younger. I really like Jose'; he's a cool dude! I am glad we are friends!
I also am friends with Colton Blue and Rico Terzas; they both go to my school, and sometimes we play together at recess. We play B-ball together or shoot marbles. Colton has JRA like my sister Ronee', and like Ronee', he uses forearm crutches to walk, and Rico has C.P. and is in a wheelchair like I am. (His chair is electric too. His is blue, and mine is green.) They are both 10, and they hang out with Jose' and me on the weekends. (They live close to me and Jose'.)
Will write more later; Ronee' is getting to be annoying. I think I am going to buzz her toes with my wheelchair if she doesn't stop making her goofy faces...Bye for now!
~Johnny. :D
