Autism/Asperger's is....

being too scared to move, but not being able to sit still.  Or in other words, not being able to accept change very well, even if it has to happen and is overdue.  I've gotten somewhat better at accepting change, but I still have a hard time with it.  Lots of people have difficulty accepting change.  The difference is that when it's an Aspie that needs to make a change, it can cause a pain that is quite acute.

Artwork by People with Asperger's Syndrome



Last one, I promise. For today, anyways. I just couldn't resist the opportunity to show off the work of other aspies.

Feelings of Girls and Women with Asperger Syndrome



Another video posted on youtube by the same woman who posted Girls and Women with Asperger's Syndrome. This one's a bit depressing though, so don't watch it if you don't like that kind of thing.

Aspie Eyes: The beautiful eyes of Asperger's syndrome



Another good video....at least I thought so.

Redecorated....

hope everyone likes it.  Just thought the place could use some colour.

Things I hate

Mosquitoes, reality television....and brussel sprouts.  The last one is probably just because I have bad memories of eating them when I was a child, and deciding that they tasted like feet.

Just ask....literally.

If you ever want to know where you stand with an aspie, just ask them.  But don't phrase it that way, since we tend to take everything literally, and we will literally tell you where you're standing...on the sidewalk, in the snow, mud, dog poo, whatever.  A much better idea is to ask us how we feel about something, if we're not exactly forthcoming about it.

New blog

I wanted to change the address of the blog to match the name, so I created this one and will delete the other one once I figure out how.....anyways....decided to move all my old posts over here too, the good, the bad and the ugly.
