| Hi everyone. I haven't posted here in over a decade! I just recommended this site to a friend who recently discovered they are Aspie, and it reminded me how valuable this place was to me way back when. I thought I'd pop back in and see what's what. As for me, I'm a 35-year-old poet living in New Mex... |

| A friend of mine just told me about a film entirely in Esperanto, starring William Shatner, called Incubus. It sounds like the most fantastically bad film ever made, so I am going to hunt it down. I say if you're interested, do it! That's the best reason to learn anything. I'm learning Irish simply ... |

| While I passed the written tests in high school driver's ed with flying colors, I failed overall because my driving is so terrible. I tend to space out and run red lights and stop signs, and simply do not trust myself or expect anyone else to trust me when I'm behind the wheel. I find it nearly impo... |

| Yes, I often do feel very male, but it is a fluid thing for me. I'll go for a while feeling quite comfortable as a girly girl, and then all of a sudden the gender switch is flipped and I'm all about boyishness. My husband and I often joke about this, and he tells me to simply "go with it". It's grea... |

Monk is one of my very favorite television shows, not least of all because of my own obsessive-compulsive tendencies. I love how his quirks work in his favour.

| It's best to pee before and after to prevent urinary tract infections; it may be a bit of a turnoff to say, "Hey, wait a sec, gotta pee!" but it's worth it! Does it hurt? My first time was very painful, but that was probably partly because I was so nervous. I bled a little as well. How did you feel ... |
