I am 42 and I have a huge set I build with my son.
I also do domino races and marble runs. The former is a really expensive sport so I would need a sponsor to compete at any level. |

I am about to go down this route because as sure as I sit here I cannot deal with working at a company.
Too much social interaction, too much noise, too many subtle unwritten social rules.
And then there's me telling it like it is... my mouth gets me into trouble every time. |

| I'm a huge Sonic fan, and totally proud of it. I first got into Sonic when I was really young, and now I have a lot of merchandise, including most games, some plushies and even a graphic novel. Have also done drawings as well to show my total love for the series and blue blur himself! 8) Me too... ... |

| Let's just say I became sexually aware at 5 years of age, even before primary school. Of course, this is frowned upon because society believes otherwise, yet the literature agrees with my experiences. |

In psychology, sex is defined as one of the primal needs of a human being, right up there with eating and sleeping. Therefore its a part of every person on this planet.
Unfortunately, religious dogma, indoctrination and other forms of thought control have attached a sense of shame to it. |

Yes, to the irritation of my family I buy broken electronics.
That DVD player that was bashed in... that poor lonely stuffed animal with the torn ear.
When I was young I had an absolute breakdown because someone stood on a plush toy and it squeaked as if it was crying. |

| Sooo.. Two weeks ago, my son was formally diagnosed, with a 44 page report, as being on the spectrum. They are not entirely sure he qualifies to be deemed to having full-blown Aspergers but, he is now on the spectrum, and we've had to change his school. The changes have been dramatic, and intense.

And yes, there are other people like me, some even very successful and accomplished, and no, I don't need to do everything I can to look and behave 'normally'. I might not be the genius kind... |

I just wonder what it would be like if it was different, sometimes. That's all. How much easier (or difficult) life would have been, and how different things would have turned out.
I have accepted this diagnosis and continue to do so. |
