Random yeah, but true as a cow sh*****g on his own food....

I'm quite overwhelmed at the moment but not so much in a negative way though, just too much input and recognition, I reckon. The thing is, this afternoon I went to a busy meeting about Autism in general and being diagnosed with an HFA as a grown up in particular.

Nice setting, a 85 years old theater but the place was packed and I had to go outside a couple of times in order not to go into my 'too much state'. There were a lot of HFAs there also and I think it's bizarre how folks organizing such events do not take in account how spectrumii would experience such gatherings.

But hey, it was a good afternoon and I met some real nice folks there and learned a thing or two. Met some fellow Aspergers about half my age and spoke and kind of hang out with them for a while.... outside, as peace and quiet seeking refugees, so to say. In a way I'm a tad jealous of them (I don't do jealousy but.... ) they know or knew, at quite a young age what 'deviation' they have and I never did and struggled so much for years on end not knowing about Aspergers.

Man, this afternoon, Oct. 10 2009, will be engraved (?) in my memory for a long time.... I went emotional hearing an Asperger telling his story through a microphone on stage (emotional, as I did, reading posts dropped by other members here a little over a year ago when I first joined) (sorry about some of the replies I posted then).

True content (of this afternoon) must sink in a little and I'll probably refer to it again later on.... maybe not, but it made quite a huge impression on this chap, I must say. Also (no kid you) a mother of two autistic boys (single again and a little older than me) came on to me quite strongly at the end of the afternoon, basically saying, if you want to go up to my place.... well.... well, you get the gist.

Wtffffffff....

I know why they have locks on the doors of 7 11's... but the fact that the locks are there never ceases to make me pause for a moment when I see them...

From. I was born in Dallas and lived in Dallas county until I was 13 when my dad died. Then my mom met my stepdad and we moved to Denton, where I lived until I was 17. An when I was 17, we all moved to Minnesota because my stepdad got a job at US Bank as a computer programmer.

If I am subjected to music over 120 decibels several times in one day it will remain in my head, even if I willingly try to ignore it.

Random thought wise, I happened to be watching an old Jim Carrey film and still found it quite funny despite how much time has passed since the release of such picture..
