Band-Aids: We love our Band-Aids

It occurs to me that people new to my Facebook Page, may not be aware of DC's obsession with band-aids. He loves them and being someone who really never gets hurt, he never has the opportunity to legitimately wear a band-aide, so he began making up reasons.

I wrote about it a few years ago on my "official" blog, but the obsession has grown more since then. Now it is not asking for a band-aide for some phantom injury - now it is asking for one, two, three BOXES of band-aids to cover his arms with - while still using a phantom "itch" as an excuse...

Facebook Statuses:

I cut my finger and thankfully "The Keeper of the Band-aids" had one he could spare. Only one and HE had to put it on. #bandaids  - FB Status

Apparently Easter was two years ago today - sporting his Easter bandaids, which are not to be confused with his birthday, Christmas or every day bandaids - FB Status

4 years ago today. We participated in a cycling challenge that helped to support DC's Summer Camp. His camp's designated hour had a Michael Jackson theme. DC (complete with Birthday Band-aids that he received at his party the night before) sported his Michael Jackson hat and TWO glitter gloves - because wearing only one was simply out of the question..   #Bandaids - FB Status

When he runs out of Characters, he is willing to go old school - basic. #bandaids - FB Status

The first wave of "birthday band aids" have been applied.. Not to worry, I have inside information that there may be more on the way.... #autism #bandaids - FB Status

This is beginning to get almost as expensive as his bookstore obsession. I'm going to have to limit him to one box per week. He is getting pretty creative with them though... #bandaids - FB Status

And the band-aids from his shopping list - he used every last one - FB Status

Two new boxes of Band-aids arrived today with a belated birthday gift. I think he used all of them already. - FB Status

But then, of course there are the "regular" uses #bandaids #autism #NoInjury #JustLikesBandaids
- FB Status

#fbmemories 2 years ago today - DC came up with yet another use for his precious band aides - FB Status

Not that I would ever advocate putting a band-aide over anyone's mouth... but the thought process and just the mere fact that he came up with that in his head was pretty funny...

I think you've got the point....
