Hi Everybody ,

I'm back.  My parents went to Missouri.  While , they were there , I stayed
with my brother , sister-in-law , and their family.  (The same place , I
stayed at when my parents went to Hawaii in late January and early February.
While , I was there , this time , I went to a boy scout review , went to
work with my sister-in-law (She thought she had to fill in for somebody ,
but , actually , she didn't.) went to a bicycle Safety Day , and went to a
track meet.

For those people that are new to me or don't remember me , , , I was born on
July 5, 1971.  It was a complicated birth. . .  I couldn't cry , breathe or
suck.  The doctors thought I would be a vegetable the rest of my life.  As a
result of all of this , I was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at the age of
three a half .  I am very physically disabled because of all of this.  I can
't walk , talk , or feed myself in the 'normal way."  When I was four years
old , I was the Cerebral Palsy Poster child.  I went to Day Care for that
had disabilities and Early Childhood.  Then I went through all of school.
When I was in fourth grade , I was put in to a special education class in
school. I used to to drool a lot and I had a surgery to stop that.   When I
was a freshman in high school , I had what looked like seizures but actually
it was suicidal attempts. I won the award for the outstanding handicapped
citizen for the state of Wisconsin.  I went to college and double majored in
Data Entry and Accounting.   I update telephone directories for a living.  I
do about twenty to thirty a year.  I do it right from my home.   I also make
and sell my own greeting cards.  As I mentioned before , I have had a lot of
problems with drepression and suicide.  From 1992 to 1998 I was in
counseling and from 1994-96, I was hospitalized seven times because of this.
The reason of all of this is because I couldn't cope with having a
disability.  My family consists of a father , a mother and three brothers.
I also have seven nieces and nephews .  I collect angels.  I'm really
involved on the Internet.  I'm on several of   ListServs, ICQ, AOL Instant
Messenger , and mIRC.  My ICQ UIN # is 16632777.  My screen name for AOL
Instant Messenger is KJPink.  The servers that I'm usually on on mIRC is
BrightNet or ChatWorks.  I have a Home WebPage .  It is at
http://homepages.msn.com/WindowsWay/kjpink/.

I have a new E-Mail address.  It is mailto:[log in to unmask]  I will
still use this E-Mail address as my main E-Mail Address.  PLEASE DON'T TELL
MY PARENTS THAT I HAVE ANOTHER E-MAIL ADDRESS.

I lost one of my jobs.  :((( It was the RTS job with The Prentke Romich
Company.  :(((

One day before I left on vacation , my Hard Disk Drive crashed :(.  My mom
told me to leave all of the listserves I was on , but I didn't listen.

Some people think I'm dumb here on the Internet.
