I want a robot servant to make me breakfast and then weightlessness so I can just float around in a comfortable position while writing this. Real life is such a nuisance sometimes

No not yet. I just arrived home by night train today. I was supposed to make contact with the other two Aspies to arrange a time once I was home. But I'm a bit fatigued after the train ride and have spent most of the day sleeping and resting. I'll probably gonna do it tomorrow. I feel like a lot of my future is depending on how well I manage this visit to the makerspace. I'm exited and anxious at the same time. But I feel safe knowing I'll have some nice company going there 
Usually only going with one person would have made me anxious because of my social anxiety, my SA is very specific like that, there's certain things I struggle with a lot in social situations, being with just one person at a time is one such thing. A group of people I usually can handle fine because I'm less the centre of attention in a group. And being in the company of a group of Aspies is the best.
But still I worry about how I'll manage going to a public place like that over a long period of time. I've tried that many times before and it usually don't end good. I might not be able to have Aspie company whenever I would like to go to the makerspace. So somehow I'll have to figure something out. Maybe it will work if I try to be very open about my SA and AS diagnosis, I haven't been able to be open with "normal people" like that before.

I feel more relaxed when I'm with one person. Groups is the worst for me. So I'm opposite you when it comes to that.
I have been open about my AS in the art union I'm member of, and have only positive experiences with that. However if being open is positive or not, I think depends on what kind of people you open up to. Being open had a positive psychological effect on me in the sense that it made me more relaxed. I felt I could be more myself because others knew why I was the way I was.
I hope you meet some mature and understanding people too
