I sometimes wished there would be signs saying," to become a doctor,lawyer,engineer you must be extremely bright."
Yes, this sounds absurd and outlandish just that, in many ways, I might have been able to avoid some of the strategic errors I've made in terms of occupational choices.. Honestly, my AS diagnosis came late in life but, atleast, I've come to understand that one should not give up on a dream rather alter the elements of such to make things realistic...

How could you, mum? You don't yell and holler at your autistic child for having an accident! That's child abuse! The 4 times that I had an accident after I was toilet trained, you did that to me. What you did to me when I was 8 takes the cake. When I was sitting on that toilet, cold and naked when you were changing my sheets that night that I had lose stools, I was thinking about plans to murder you many years later. I hope you remember that, when I'm changing your Depends, 20 years from now, all the nasty ways that you've abuse me, and I will remind you of my memories of those times, as I change you, without the yelling. :evil:

Another thing. Don't expect me to talk to you about my special interests any time soon. You also got very angry at me for doing that, as well. My obsession with The United States of America really stands out! I hated myself when I was 10, because of that. Another autistic trait that you wanted to holler out of me. You've lost even more of the privilege when Pete Quaife passed away.

I don't know why it bothers her so much that I don't have friends. It's not her business, it doesn't affect her and I'm fine with being alone. She thinks everything is about her, why can't she just leave me alone? She keeps trying to ruin my system and my schedule. It doesn't affect her at all.

You spanked me out of anger and I got into fights in elementary school. Gee....I wonder why?

I was almost in tears a few moments ago because, when I was out running, a kid threw a stick at me. It almost made me cry because I was already upset to begin with. That's because, when I weighed myself on the scale after I got up today, I realized that I had only lost 1 pound. I had expected to lose at least 2 or 3, so I was very disappointed.

I made a resolve to exercise more, so that's why I was out running. When that kid threw the stick at me, I knew that I had to go back inside and I couldn't run until he left. That's what made me upset.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hate kids like that. Here's a hug. :O)

I am fed up waiting for a courier firm to call and collect a huge mattress that was replaced on Thursday for the correct size.
I can't move in here ! ! !

Why can't my sentence fragments join together coherently? I use a semicolon or comma to connect two pieces together and it really frustrates me.

Just as I was about to log on to WP and make some beans on toast with a coffee, we had a power cut in the area.
I managed to make toast under the grill, heat the beans and boil some water on the hob but I couldn't master an alternative power source for the hub 'n' pc. :roll:

Why can't I listen to The f*****g Beatles without laughing? Am I really that much of a freak? It would be nice to be able to be a Beatles Fan again, but I can't get there, in the state that I'm in. It must be my selection of songs. :evil:

I woke up with a headache. How do you wake up with a headache? What can there possibly be about sleeping which would trigger a headache? :roll:

get a CAT scan and you may find out. i have never woken up with a headache. i think it would scare me seriously if i developed a "head ache" at any time of the day (especially if it was in the morning).

I get headaches sometimes in the morning and it usually goes away on it's own, especially after a cup of coffee. Mine feels sinus-y to me but you might be clenching your jaw at night which could lead to a tension headache.

I get headaches and/or migraines all the time, so I've learned to deal with it. But usually something like light or other visual over-stimulation triggers them. I don't think this is the case when I'm sleeping though, unless I was having some crazy dreams that I don't remember. :lol:

That's a good possibility, Aimless. I end up with toothaches when I'm stressed, and I'm pretty sure it's because of jaw clenching or tooth grinding while I'm sleeping. They go away when the stress is relieved. Unfortunately, coffee didn't help me today.
