Look at how incredibly cool my pets are around my wheelchair?                 Yup, what can I say? My cats are cooler around me more than most humans. They’re totally disability desensitized! Sure, it helps that they’ve only know their Master to be yours truly, Tiffiny the Quad, their entire lives…but I’m still impressed. They never run from my tankesque powerchair in fear everytime I come around the corner. In fact, they run to me instead. Yup, little Miss Pixie loves me. – Tiff

I’ve decided to put an end to allowing my wheelchair from disrupting my social life. I don’t ALWAYS need to be in my 314lb powerchair. No siree bob. I’m lucky enough to have a lightweight manual, so I mine as well use it right? SO many of my friends, since the economic-crisis hit, have been throwing parties at their homes instead of going out, and I’m sick of missing out on all the fun. Time to be ok with getting lifted up flights of stairs, Tiff. There’s just one teeny tiny problem: The wheels on my manual lose air really fast, and going to the gas station in freezing cold Minnesota weather…

It’s no secret I enjoy being a girl. I relish in it, in fact. And my peoples (omg how I adore this site) ChinaTowner is seriously the best place online to buy a super sexy dress for INCREDIBLY cheap. I am in love with this site so much that just visiting it and browsing it puts me in a better mood. The dress pictured on the left, for example, is only $33 (approx). They’re designs are just freakin’ fabulous….fierce even, dope! And you know, with the holiday season right around the corner (sort of, but it will be here sooner than you think), I can’t think of a better site to buy…

Ever heard of these aerosol dandies? If not, it’s probably because you were either A) Born after 1970 or B) You live in the USA (apparently people all over Europe are more than aware of this easy-breezy way to “refresh” your hair). Anyways here’s the dealio: There are some really nice (and expensive) dry shampoos that are on the market right now, and not only do they work (just spray it all over, comb through, let dry, and it’s clean/”refereshed”), but they’re perfect for ladies with disabilities who need help washing their hair the “water way.” Your grandma probably used dry shampoo back in her younger days, and hippies at week-long music…

Last night was one of those special nights that make you feel like Santa Claus. My concert/musician conoisseur friend Allison, a 38 year old with mild Cerebral Palsy (she can push herself in a manual wheelchair), has literally been stuck in the hospital the last 3 months with these mysterious stomach abscesses that had to be surgically removed. And since she’s been in bed for 3 months trying to heal, she’s not surprisingly gotten weaker. So now, unfortunately, she’s at a stage where she can’t transfer herself anymore from the floor back into her chair for example (in her studio condo she just has a mattress on the floor…yeah she’s emo like that). So…
