Perhaps I'm not very adventurous.

Coffee+chocolate+mint altogether = too many strong, conflicting flavours.

Coffee with a separate after dinner mint would be fine.


I agree, more than one strong flavor is usually too much for me. I'm weird, I don't like chocolate and mint together at all - I like mint just fine and I love chocolate on its own, but together? Ew.

My mom doesn't ordinarily like coffee, but she enjoys peppermint mocha.

So she enjoys coffee that doesn't taste like coffee.
See, this is what does my head in. :lol:

I would prefer the mint and chocolate separate too.
And it would have to be dark chocolate.
Mmmm, chocolate. :P


Pretty much, yeah. I don't get it, either. I deal with not liking coffee by just not drinking coffee, not trying to cover up the coffee flavor with other things.

My internet connection is very unstable at the moment and has been for days... It shouldn't matter much though as the plan was getting out more. But NT people scare me and I don't know how I'll manage to get along with them over time without Aspie support. My friends can't always be there with me... I somehow have to manage this alone.

Socialising does get easier the more you do it, but it's still exhausting.

If you think socialising is exhausting, you should try socializing. That's even worse.

I just feel like an alien from another planet when I try to converse with people, I just somehow pick the wrong words and sentences and I'm quiet at the wrong turns. Aspies are more forgiving than NT's in conversations.

This is not going to be easy...

Today's plan was to get up really early, go for a run to get the important endorphin rush, pack my equipment, take train to city during the dark and safe early hours and work all day at the makerspace. Somehow I've been awake for most of the night and now my initial plan is long overdue. Plan B is go for a run and hope it will fix everything. I need to eat something before that... I feel terrible. I'll have to push myself...

My plans didn't exactly go as planned either. I got out of bed around 9 pm, so not much of the day left then :lol: However I stayed up all night and in the morning I got through my one hour and forty minutes exercise routine, even though I was slightly dreading it all night. It feels so good afterwards!

So pushing yourself might pay off is what I'm trying to say.

Only for Americans.

Yes, I'm about to do it now, though I dread having to do it when it's so bright outside in the middle of day when all normal people are at school or work... But from experience I know I'll not care when I have found the rhythm of the run and the calmness I'll feel afterwards. I have to do it or I'll just feel bad and depressed for the rest of the day.

I am seriously thinking of doing this -

It can't possibly be any worse than the complete professional tattoo FAIL I paid $150 for last week. The pain wouldn't register for me so no problems there, and I'd have full control without having to try and communicate at all.
I want tattoos everywhere. But I'm sick of other people screwing up my skin on my dime. It's happened too often.
I'd love some tattoo taboos if I could get away with it somehow - especially hands and sleeves. Alas, I'm not confident enough in other people's prejudices to go through with the knuckle dusters. :(
