About a 3. Usually, I feel comfortable and secure about who I am (a 7 most days). Today I went downtown to run a few errands and browse for some books and for some reason I seemed to notice people more: how they expressed themselves, the conversations with friends, animated facial expressions, the w... |

Irish, English, German, Polish, and Dutch. From the Irish/English heritage, I have ancestors from the Danes/Norse that invaded and settled there. |

Supreme Commander 2 and The Witcher: Enhanced Edition.
Steam sales are too tempting. Good value, though. |

I sometimes go thru phases too, but there does seem to be a particular pattern foods I'll eat, and loads of stuff I just won't. In regards to what I won't: mostly fruits and vegetables. Reason being: they're mostly sweet, and I don't like the texture, either. I don't mind drinking fruit juice; I en... |

Yes. My nephew was diagnosed with AS a couple of months ago.
My sister, after reading about AS traits, told me I probably has AS, too. After some research of my own, I definitely thought so, too.
Professional diagnosis in process. |
