Defensive Omnivore Bingo

This was posted on my Facebook group, Queen City Vegan. I find it really funny!
I have heard them from other people! Especially because I know I've used some of these 'defenses'!

Does a line across, and a line down win? I'm so close to getting a blackout!

My Brain Injury

The ex-husband, and I were in a vehicle collision on December 5, 2009. I was in a coma for 8 days. It was a closed head injury. To prevent my brain from swelling, and even further damage, I was chilled with ice and really cold water.
I had an acute small hemorrhage in my left temporal lobe & midbrain, a subarachnoid hemorrhage in my left parietal lobe, and a non-displaced skull fracture of my right frontal lobe and my occipital lobe. Basically, there was a lot of bleeding.
I had to relearn everything we take for granted such as, sitting up, balancing, tying my shoes, walking, talking, printing, and simple math.
Saw double till mid-April 2010, and I had to think about the physical mechanics of forming sounds to make words for a long time.
I do have memory problems, which is why I keep many notes and lists.
But! My memory is absolutely improving!!
Fatigue and anxiety are still my barriers.
I was told by one of my occupational therapists that I have a 'high-functioning brain injury'.
