Self Introduction, Part Deux

Post Reply New Topic

Hi all,

I'm the NT wife of another new member here, Catalyst. He kinda pre-intro'd me in his post, so I'll spare ya.

We've had a ball reading over the YMBAAI thread, and it's nice to have a place like this where I can have it confirmed that while Cat will always be unique to me, at least some of his weirdness is not really weird when you view it in the context of others with AS. In fact, a couple of my children display some mild autistic traits, themselves, although I would be seriously surprised if any professional would agree that those add up to a medical diagnosis. Come to think of it, I think my family is all in all just a little off the center mark, which is probably why we all adore Cat and he can relate to us better than he's been able to relate to most of the people in his life before.

I see the difficulties and pain that come from having Asperger's, but I also see the amazing differences between Cat and the rest of us that make him so special, and made me fall in love with him in the first place. Life is NEVER boring around here, that's for sure, and the majority of the time it is wonderful, and we're happy as clams. Every day there are fewer and fewer moments when I feel the urge to skin him alive and rub him down with salt, and instead I just have to kinda shake my head and say, "I love you honey. You are WEIRD, but I love you."

Looking forward to meeting new friends here!

Welcome! It's great that you've decided to take part on WrongPlanet. You sound like a great wife.

Thanks! I'm glad to be here.

She is.

Aww, thanks. I have to say here, though, that I was inordinately amused by the fact that we enacted one of your "you might be" things tonight with the whole dress thing.

on another note, hi ^_^

Hehe. Ok. I suck at all video games, but most especially at first person shooters. I mean, egads. Several years ago, I was enticed into a "friendly" game of James Bond "Golden Eye" with my brother and three (supposed) friends. We were playing the four-way split screen, and one of my "friends" was my "partner." Yeah, right. As I was getting shot down left and right with NO idea where I was, what or who was killing me, or what the double-chopsticks I was doing, I suddenly realized that my "partner" was giggling... it was HE that was killing me!

That effectively ended my video game career. Not that it was any great loss to the gaming community, of course, at least ever since WOD MUSH's of any real worth went the way of the dinosaur...

And... Hi back.

BOW TO THE CRIMSON KING AND HIS GREAT RIGHT HAND FLAGG

...indeed

Well, you did let me try to teach you Command and Conquer Generals.

I know Flagg from The Stand, but I never did read the Dark Tower stuff. Sowwy.

I'll give you a semi-bow anyway. How's that?

I did, at that.... but I sucked fabulously, if you remember correctly. I get several points for effort, I suppose...

I'm getting this as a full back piece. you can worship my back when it is finished.






welcome, homewitch.
