I'm also getting into Shaun ... |

| Every kid wants to fit in; even a lot of people with autistm/AS can tell there's something different about themselves (That "Maybe I really am from another planet" moment). Your daughter has just learned how to do it at an early age. Wish I'd learned that quickly lol....it took me until maybe age 8 ... |

Then once a week they would come dressed in their cool Cub Scout shirts, yellow neckerchiefs and caps so they could attend the... |

can't say I've ever experienced V-Tach, but if you do, you should see a Dr....they can give you medication to help you out.
Night Terrors aren't fun...I used to have dreams where this huuuuge black dog was chasing me. It scared me s**tless.
But really, no V-tach, that's not good at all. |

I shave my legs and my armpits and bathing suit areas...yeah...anything else is chill with me.
Only reason I shave my legs is because during PT we do swimming and stuff so I do it for there so I don't look wacky. |

| I hate makeup for 2 reasons: 1- I'm in the military and regulations don't allow females to wear make-up in uniform and 2- people look dumb when they wear too much of it and I'd be afraid of either giving myself a rash or looking like a freak. Not to mention if God wanted you to have a painted face h... |
