I believe my manager will be in the meeting with me, (she used to work in a special needs school and may understand me better than most) so I think I'll have some support there. I just wish I knew what questions they had that they can't ask through email.


My boss knows I've got Asperger's Syndrome and she was very interested in it.

One time, I was having sensory/other issues with where they moved me to and she moved me back. Other people who wanted to move and weren't allowed were jealous and kept asking why I was allowed to move and they couldn't. She's made several exceptions for me due to my AS and been very nice to me. She's a lovely person. Her name is Maria.


That's great that your boss has been so nice and accommodating!



One time, we were getting into a life and, ... you know when people touch you to be friendly? She touched me on the elbow AND I FLINCHED and pulled away. 8O I don't know if she noticed or not but she still likes me so I guess she must have understood.

Sometimes, people give me 'looks' and I can never understand what it is they're trying to convey.

I heard a girl say that when she was a Study Abroad student in Costa Rica, she was lonely and depressed because she didn't have any friends for a couple weeks. It took all my strength not to laugh my ass off. I routinely go entire semesters without friends.


I currently don't have any friends (IRL) and quite frankly, it doesn't bother me. I've always been self reliant and got on by myself without needing any company.

In my experience, life is a lot less complicated when you're by yourself and far less drama. No one to get angry and scream at you. Boo hasn't screamed at me in the entire time I've had him live with me.

Well said dcj123 - I couldn't have said it better myself

My experience with (most) people is that they just want to take advantage of your naive, innocent way of being and use you.

Sometimes, they look evil but I'm sure I'm misinterpreting them.

I often jump when people touch me out of nowhere like that...sometimes I feel bad about it later but it's just a natural reaction for me.

Me too. I felt bad about that too (because I like her) but I can't help it. It's like when the Doctor hits you on the knee and your leg jumps.

I was going to say yes because I've heard of it but I just Googled it and it looks as though we don't. I don't know where I've heard of it from then.

I'm sure we do (or did).

But if we did have it in the past, there'd still be remnants of it on Google.

Perhaps it's another one of those things I know, where I don't know how I know. 8O

Decided to stop being a girl and forego the rifle/shotgun today and here on out; not worth the hassle of lugging it on somewhat iffy to dangerous terrain. Pig sticker is enough for the events that never happen. Falling happens, though.
