We spend most weekends at our cabin in the Laurel Highlands. There is always plenty to do. As the temperatures drop I tend to become more active. This is the actual hiking trail.
So I had a bid going on eBay for £32 for Soul Calibur 6 on Xbox, I was winning right up to literally 5 seconds left of the bid, eh? Annoying when people wait till literally the last second to outbid me! In better news, I have a trial day booked volunteering at the new Sue Ryder Charity shop on...

I love travelling. The sensory experiences create some badly needed dopamine. But I get flustered rather easily. To counteract that, I like to be thorough when I make travel plans, to leave as little as possible to chance. Am I the only one? Let's share stories.
Physically my heart feels as though it’s crying. I’m not though. I got it wrong again. After my last online dating disaster, I had picked myself up and decided to try again. I started talking to someone new. We liked each other, we were making plans to meet etc. During our conversations I...

Aspergers & Autism
I have had romantic relationships since I was 18, I’m 31 now. I finished a long relationship a while ago and had been happily single. I was diagnosed with Aspergers 4 months ago, I’ve been enjoying the liberation it feels to understanding yourself better. I’ve been feeling positive and...

Topic. Applied to the one in Town last night, bit awkward to get to as it's just on the Parkway, I don't think it's on the Tram route, well I suppose I could get off at Nunnery Square and walk through the car park. Plus I have those 2 interviews this week tomorrow and Tuesday.

Being diagnosed made me more aware of issues that I wouldn’t have previously recognised. I’ve noticed that sometimes when I felt overwhelmed, I generally didn’t realise that it may be due to sensory overload. For instance I could be wearing clothes that are too itchy or too tight, and the...

Topic. Had an email today based on an online application on Indeed.co.uk a few weeks back, if the phone interview is successful, I will be invited to a face to face interview at the shop. IMO this one might be more suitable than the Sorting Office job I'm interviewing for next week, as I have...

Christmas temp work part time at Jessop's Camera shop in Meadowhall, and part time work at a local Petrol Station (it says the post code for it is s3, I doubt I'd get much more local!). Indeed is the best website ever (apart from this one of course! :D)

It's been a month since my last update, which was rather bleak. A lot has happened in the mean time. For one, I started seeing a psychiatric nurse and a psychologist at my local health care crisis center. Usually wait lists are up to 8 months here, but I had the mixed blessing of being so...

Topic. Just confirmed the interview by email for the Tuesday after next at 10 AM at First Post House, Brightside Lane at 10 AM. If it's where I think it is, I'll need a lift or a Taxi there because it's not on the Tram route between Town and Meadowhall. Anyway! Go me! I have an interview for a...

"Hey I'm sorry about coming off as a creep I don't know why I did that crap and I know you must hate my guts right now. Honestly speaking I'm used to talking to women face to face or thru text because of the fear I'd do some stupid stuff like that. I didn't mean for that to happen either I got...
In case any of the new people I met the last few months wonder why I say some outreagous stuff. I experienced something very messed up to the point I needed counseling for 3 months back in 2015, aka my father's slow transition from one world to the next from lung cancer. I say that it was a slow...

With Three. Not too shabby, £17 a month for "All You Can Eat" minutes and texts and 30 Gig data. Only thing is I've been with Three before and I don't think they have UK call centres, but hopefully I won't have to ring them until about this time next year to give 30 days notice if need be...
