    I took a break from therapy, since it got too expensive. But with work stressing me out i had to make an appointment again. I may have to quit my job.

    AprilR, you are in therapy, right? Are you talking about all of this kind of stuff with the therapist? What kind of response do you get from...

    I think that "letting go" is a universal difficult for all of us human beings, regardless if Aspie or NT. I think that we want to control for...

    Sorry you're feeling like this. I know how it feels. It would be nice to have a constant source of support. I don't think many people have that...

So, apparently I like to ramble a bit about employment and such, and this is no different. A few thoughts resonate in my mind for the last few weeks. And some stuff actually was stuff I read on this forum. It wasn't a problem as such, that I felt miserable for it... to me it's data, to help...

Sometimes I wonder if all the attention autism is getting nowadays is a good thing, or whether it will end up backfiring on us. It's really hard to explain to someone what exactly autism is, and how it makes you (the autistic person) different from non-autistic persons, or to use the current...

Well, now I have been told that I am belligerent for no reason. Yeah, right, whatever. Actually my accuser has it all wrong. I am belligerent FOR a reason. My goal in life is to make as many people miserable as I possibly can. I just get a big kick out of it because that is the kind of...
So far one of the biggest problems I've had is time management and constantly being distracted. Any tips on how to deal with it? I'm driving my parents up the wall, but I don't know what to do.

In my last blog I discussed Catholicism in some detail. Now I am going to look at other religions that I have observed that pose particular problems when one of the couple does not belong to that faith. Please keep in mind that I do not know these religions from the inside out and I may be...

Sometimes I wonder if the reason people find themselves in dysfunctional or stressful relationships is because they don't do their homework. Think about it, the average person probably does more research when it comes to buying consumer goods like electronic equipment, cars, appliances, and...

WARNING. I am going to step on some people's toes here and if they are easily offended, they should not read this post. Ayn Rand said once that she thought women in general were not as smart as men. Once I would have bristled to read something like that, but the older I get and the more I...
Why is it that certain parts of the body are considered unmentionable while others are not? Is it because they are prone to discharges and other gross stuff? Yet mouths and noses are prone to the same, but nobody says that you can't mention them (except maybe the Tuareg of North Africa who do...
One day Bernard Doorway bought a piece of black lettuce in TESCO. It had been grown on a farm in Winterset and was due to expire in five minutes time, which meant he had to eat it ever so quick, which caused him to burp, so loud, that it could be heard as far away as America. So loud was the...

King Size 1st ruled Britain in the 16th century. He came to power when King Pilchard 5th died. Under King Size's rule going to school at 3.00 in the morning became compulsory; any refusal and you would end up with a lengthy jail sentence, possibly 10 years. At 3.00 every morning the king...

This cereal is aimed primarily at schoolchildren, this means that only children can eat it, not adults, for if an adult eats it he could blow up and burst, causing all his innards to shoot right across the room - his heart, lungs, the lot. Children are immune from this body explosion syndrome...

This play I am doing has really got me thinking. It really makes me wonder about memories and choices and even though my character says to her son that it really isn't about the women that his father slept with back in his college days, it's about something, a story or an event that makes you...

There is a rat that lives in my brain. He's a big albino Sprague-Dawley rat with beady red eyes. He lives in a wire mesh cage with an exercise wheel. No one can see this rat. He doesn't show up on tests. But I know he is there. Most of the time he is sleeping and that is the way I like it...

Well, I guess the ice cube/backward pajamas magic worked, because we are getting snow and quite a bit of it. They say the mess that shut down Washington State is headed our way. I can hardly wait! Kids--you can stop flushing your damn ice cubes down the toilet now, and go put your pajamas on...
So... I went to see my therapist today as she told me she'd have results in by january 18th. I had no idea what to expect... well, to me it could be anything. I kinda expected her to pull the PDD-NOS thing on me. It always felt kinda "easy" to put such a label on someone. Anyway; the...

One day Ilford town Hall got demolished to make way for a big long bath that was needed for people who washed every 250 years. At the far end stood an enormous man whose job was to throw bathers into the bath. Here are the rules that you need before you use this bath. 1. Every person...

Last Sunday one of the elders said something that has stuck in my mind. He said "the Enemy does not like what we are doing here at this church. The Enemy does not like what we are doing in this town. We need to pray for the leadership of this church so that they will be protected from the...
