Yah, don't worry about it Blessed, I'm playing with my mojo.
Just reread her note, I'm not encouraged. SwampBlossom actually lived there and knows the locals Nan was speaking of. I can't pin her house to one spot, but very close, very close, as in yards. It's hard to know, it has wiped a lot of homes but in the middle of the devastation they have some that still stand. One of her escape routes wasn't a good choice, but I think she would have chosen the one with more people, even though that's a tendency for the thing not to do with us. She had good reasons for doing that one. She's also desert, dry brush country smart, she'll do the right thing. Could be longer before we hear, it's still in process. I didn't expect a reply back last night or I would have stayed up. She was just finding it comforting to be online. I would have thrown her off before then though. Ain't worry great?

Oh yeah!! Worry is fabulous and so are ulcers!
I wondered what she was doing on-line at that time. And it sounds like a 20 year old to be trying to figure out her socks in the midst of impending disaster. Nan is right that being Aspie comes in handy. She will do the right thing.

Yea Blessed Mom I know what you are talking about. We get sick of being 'weird' and misunderstood when we know there is so much untapped love and friendship within that we can't share. (Even though I'm NT I have been recently described as the weirdest person my friends know. Funny, yes, but lonely too.)
Perhaps soulmates - sisters and brothers - is more hollywood than real.

Yes, that is true! Weird is in the eyes of the beholder. My normal friends are as boring as all heck. There's not an original one in the crowd.
It was very nice talking to you in realtime. Isn't it amazing the amount of guilt one pair of doggy eyes can induce??
Edit: knocked the heck out of the last sentence

Nan is right that being Aspie comes in handy. She will do the right thing.Yeah well it wasn't just the socks, seems she was still talking about the upcoming party on Friday. But even Nan was a bit mystified by it. Better that then going melt down full time. Nan was debating if she should head to the sea or get over the mountians to El Centro. She has the feel of how that stuff goes, she was already forcasting what the fire would do, where it would go and at what time if it did a split. What it would do if it hit the nature preserve. It's one of those you have to be there deals, maps just don't really cut it from here. She was going to do something within an hour or two from her last post and they already were stopping traffic on unsafe roads even before then. Ok, I shut up about it now, just worried.

Holy! I got a little worried there. Our internet went down for 20 minutes! 
We have had steady winds gusting between 50 km and 100 km/hr for 3 days now. It is normal Fall and Winter weather for this area. Thankfully we don't have any bush or trees outside the city limits and we don't get fires in the city. If we did, we'd be like California is now but for 7 months of the year. Grass fires tend to be put out fairly easily. The only weather we have to worry about is in the summer when we get tornado weather and so far, they have only hit around the city in open wheat fields.

Tony Attwood can cure all aspies - just put them in a room by themselves! But that does not address loneliness.
... peers around to catch a glimpse of patient dog eyes

My home is truly an Aspie sanctuary! Tony Atwood would be proud. NT friends and relatives are very uncomfortable around us in our territory which is how we like it. I figure if we have to wear our masks out there like they do, they can come in and be weird with us!
There are people talking to themselves and ignoring each other and saying whatever comes into their heads (as long as it isn't hurtful). We have conversations about 3 different perseverations going on at once and we are all happy! It is truly wonderful!!

I discovered that you shouldn't talk to yourself when you're shopping in Walmart. You'll suddenly hear "Security to Section C!"
I was followed through 3 sections by the plain-clothes security guy and I made sure I stopped in all of them and picked up and looked at all kinds of things.

so out of place.
