Whenever I'm in a conversation with other people, I usually get so caught up with trying to listen to what they're saying that I actually forget to actually listen to what they're saying.

It's pretty amusing when I look at my past grades, and noticed that I did well in certain reoccurring areas but only mediocre in others. Not surprising, they all have something to do with my special interests.
Sometimes my thoughts can keep me so preoccupied at night that I don't feel like sleeping very much even when I should.
I can't even remember the last Saturday that I didn't have to work.
Ever had those moments when you just got back from the store, and then sometime later something breaks, and you have to go back to the store to replace it?
I had to buy a new bowl today for lunch because my sister took my favorite bowl to work today. I could've used the other bowls in the cabinet, but I can't stand the color red.
Does anyone else have to have something in your hands in order to listen better?
Ever had the problem where you know you need to get something done, but your brain is doing everything in its power to do literally everything else?
Sometimes I feel like the smartest and dumbest person in the room.
I wonder sometimes if dating another autistic person is harder or easier than neurotypical people. Dating is confusing in general so...I guess it doesn't matter.
It's perfectly normal to wear the same color shirts everyday. That's what Steve Jobs did (I think he was autistic).
Sometimes, I get so wrapped in a subject that I lose track of time, and sometimes annoy people when I talk about it too much.
Ever had those moments where you see something that's not on the shelf properly at the store and you just can't help but to put it back in its place?
Do you ever just count the tiles on the floor, or play little mind games with the patterns when you're in a waiting room?
Anyone else also have ADHD along with autism? Are they related by any chance?
It's gonna feel weird sleeping in on a Monday.
Working into the evening is not for me.
I love light novels...
Nothing is more soothing than a little rain at your local coffee shop.
Sometimes, it's okay to be a little eccentric.
