| There was a while I would have reacted just like he did. With age my perspective has changed... Now I would let my partner decide if I had transgressed an unwritten rule. On the other foot...if my partner told me they had strayed like that I would just be glad they came back to me. The only reason I... |

I guess this sort of qualifies.
I bought 4 x pillowblocks with bearings, some 1/2" radiator hose and a length of 1/2" bright rod for making a skyrocket case roller. |

The hard part is virtually shutting down for the 6 months ... |

| I must say I've never "felt the love" from MDMA. (and this is the same batches that had my friends going gaga). But I do seem to have an unusual response to many pharmaceuticals. It always seemed to me to be just a mild amphetamine. Cocaine however has amazing affects on my sociability. I ... |

I live on a farm cut out of the middle of a forest... no neighbours.
In summer I only put on clothes to go into town. |

I had already manifested chronic fatigue, so lethargy wasn't too much of an additional problem. Unfortunately smoking is becoming hazardous to my vascular and respiratory syste... |

This certainly doesn't make me a morning person as I'm usually grumpy as he'll until I've been awake a few hours. It is a bit frustrating having a partner who seems to have a ... |

When I was a kid I went to the local grocers on the way home from school and pinched a packet of cake decorations that looked like ball bearings.. Somehow mum found them and marched me back to the store to make me apologise. The shopkeeper... |

I have a pair of femoral aneurysms, but the doctors seem conflicted as to what implications this could have.
My teeth...neglected due to insufficient funds... I've lost 3 molars. My bite geometry has changed and my front teeth no longer touch.

It's accessible only from the river after an hour hike. the entrance is hidden under an apple tree and starts with a 3 turn corkscrew just big enough for an adult. after some more worming... and a quick dip underwater, there ... |

| The older one gets, the better one fakes it. Up to a point. When your memory develops holes and your body starts failing it all falls apart. I'm only 48, but i feel an accelerated decrepitude underway. Social interaction is becoming harder and harder. Outgrowing Aspergers? I'm inclined to doubt it. |
