Dyslifia

I heard of a new disfunction called dyscalculia, very similar to dyslexia but it deals with scrambling up numbers and calculations instead of words.

Well I submit to you my own new found disfunction.

Dyslifia. (dis�life�ee�a)
A living disorder marked by impairment of the ability to recognize and comprehend normal life. Or the disfunction of living your life backwards or jumbled.

Bingo! I have finally found my disorder. My life has never been lived normal. And now with my fourth child on the way I feel like my disfunction has just been getting worse. Everyone needs an excuse as to why they are the way they are. So why not invent your own excuse? This one seems to fit me just right. I am considering having it trademarked.

I also am amused that Dyslifia fits with being a Christian and being called to be not of this world. I am sure many non-Christians already peg Christians with this disfunction and now thanks to me it has a name.

Let me know what you think.

Hmmmm. Dyslifia. Very interesting. Of course then you have to get into the whole definition of what "normal" life is...GASP.

Hello. Just stumbled upon your post. I'm dyscalculic, and yes, your post offends me. Try looking up http://www.dyscalculiaforum.com and read all the posts from people with dyscalculia... Then, maybe, you will understand that dyscalculia is not an excuse but an explanation.
