Hi.

My co-wo... |

At the same time I mentioned that she had set up this system to send emails to the whole team which ... |

Back in the days of cassettes, I would have to re-wind the tape every 3-4 mins to repeat my track. If I had a track I really liked, I would fill both sides of a cassette with the same song, no more re-winding, just turn the tape over. doing this was quite tedious though as I would have to stop both ... |

When I first get a CD, I will often listen to the whole thing a few times but there are often 2 or 3 tracks which really get me going and I will then listen to those on repeat-1. Looking at my play counts for an album, some tracks have only 8 plays, whereas one as over 1,600 plays. |

I find I'm generally ok but in the past few years I have felt less happy during the winter months, I put this down to the lack of daylight due to the short days, apparently it is quite common and is known as SAD (seasonal affective disorder). In October last year, I went out and bought some new ligh... |

I like to listen to certain tracks of a CD or MP3 on repeat-1 mode (playing the same single track over and over), sometimes for an entire day. No-one else I know likes doing this and think I am odd doing it. Is this a common aspie thing or is it just me? |

I would go crazy-far distances by myself on my bike with training wheels at an early age without my parents knowing. I learned to ride a bike at the normal age. My bike is my primary mode of transportation. I just can't drive a car due to fear and problems with depth perception. How far is crazy fa... |

Several sources I have looked at seem to suggest it is harder for an aspie to ride a bicycle. Is this due to balance issues? Or road skills/awareness? |
