When I was young, like 4 - 5 years old, my parents used to fight all the time during the nights, I know because I remember every single fight that use to wake me up almost every time, my father start cheating my mother with multiple women and he doesn't even care for his family, and mostly the...
From the east, thunder/
my horse free-foots it, shying/
I clap hand to hat/
trail partnerships/
leave marks in our deepest hearts/
going on and on/
I don't see my tears/
the trail goes underwater/
I don't hear my laugh/
the trail's silent/
I don't feel my bad fortune/
just a saddle burr/...
Earlier this week I posted about a pending date with a woman with whom I’ve been mailing on and off for the past few months. I’ve gotten to quite like her over a variety of factors. I didn’t see a picture of her before so it was pretty much a “blind date” for me. And that in turn made it a bit...
Taking a cue from Spiller's comment (I'd link to it if I knew how):
I made myself go into the Games Forum and had a delightful time reading threads and playing. (I think I don't like online games, except Solitaire. But these are fun games!)
I'm learning how much AC means to me, which is scary...
Today is one of those calendar dates I like: one in which an historical figure I like had (or made) something happen. Today I remember the execution of Mary, Queen of Scots [links to image from the movie Elizabeth the Great].
Mary isn't an ancestor. I wasn't named for her; there's no particular...
I am now at the point where my problems all seem to have been identified, but there is one more problem precluding me from them: having to take action.
This might seem strange to others, me identifying my problems and planning solutions, but reluctant to put them in gear. This is because I have...
Accessori moda comprendono tutti quegli elementi che accentuano l'aspetto personale e lo stile di una persona . Oggi , accessori di moda sono disponibili in tutti i tipi di materiali e design . Le donne non si stancano mai di acquistare sempre più accessori . Quindi , essi hanno una grande...
Today, starting at 2 pm, I suddenly lost all of my happiness and energy and sat with a grim face on the couch. When my mother noticed this, she approached me and asked if I was okay, to which I replied it was nothing serious like a seizure or depression, but that I just felt tired. A while after...
I seem to do best when I'm taking care of an animal, and lately I've been really wanting a cat again. Mostly, I want a kitten -- I want to raise a cat from its youth, because I've not been able to do that in a while. I love cats and kittens, and I think I'm happier when I'm around them.
Like...
Post secondary transition planning actually starts with the question:
"What is the final goal?"
I think for most parents the answer would be:
Getting a job they enjoy and that pays a livable wage.
But autistic teens and young adults don't necessarily adhere to the same schedule as their NT...
A while back at church I was asked to write a short article for the newsletter about the anti-racism discussion group I had participated in. The other members had all had their turn and now it was mine. So I wrote what was in my heart, even though I knew that some of the things I had to say...
There are over 3000 colleges and universities in the United States.
That doesn't even count the online schools.
So how does an autistic high school student (and their parents) decide where to go to college, or even if college is the right choice for them.
I have a 15 year old daughter so this...
A while back someone told me that I did not know anything about GLBT issues because I said that the transgender phenomena, like vegetarianism and other diets, was a sign of of an affluent society; that people who are really poor do not have the luxury of focusing on being picky about food or...
So i was at work on Sunday - as a cashier - like usual, and even though it was in the last two hours of my shift i was actually in a good mood. It was actually slow during the first and last two hours of my shift, which helped my stress levels a lot. So i ended up in a fairly good mood on my...
Over a decade ago, an art teacher running a weekend workshop told us: "Wanting to make the art is a development step. It's progress in making art."
In the years since, it has been useful for me to notice what forms art takes when I'm struggling or when I'm not struggling. When I paint. When I...
You know, I posted this in a forum thread, but I wanted to be able to find it easily, so it's here, too.
I have a really funny story!
Or, you know, maybe not.
Monday, I went to the Dollar Tree for two headphone packages and some toothpaste. I have been sick, so I hadn't been out for a week to...
Life has its funny twists and turns as usual. I was discovered on facebook by long lost cousins after the death of my aunt last year, and soon after I was accepted into a doctoral program that offered a reasonable stipend I was encouraged to purchase flights to visit them...something I'd never...
In my last blog I talked about how the protests over Ferguson and other instances of police brutality may actually be working against poor communities of color by discouraging investment in or near those communities. I talked about how one large historically African-American inner-city...
Shaken, broken:
a skinful of frozen ink
diced across the day
Sunbreak in the clouds!
It must be the crows flying
to mark the solstice.
The mountain poems
shine whitely at dawn: I can't
chant them, they sing themselves.
Eleanor's phone call:
we did not speak, but we talked--
in hazy...
Two weeks ago, I had no job, no more unemployment, no mortgage payment, and no sure hope that I could preserve my household intact. I was rationing my prescriptions and living off food boxes. I screamed and sobbed because I had tried so hard and failed so badly at life. My house quaked like an...
