Hartz I saw you post else where this week, I saw, I just didn't know what to say and am sooo pleased you're on the up. You sure sound it.
Merle I swear, kiddo, it's a damn good thing we don't live close, I'd be kicken NT butt on your behalf. Man I hate that kind of thing.
I saw some post on the main site header, something about an Aspie Service Dog. I figure I have one. His name is Ike, he probably wieghs about 150 pounds + and not full grown. I walk down the street and others cross the street. I think he would be considered a "personal space" dog. I wonder if that would get him in the grocery store when I have to do it.
if it has pups, can i have one? (if you ever find him a mate, i mean, don't be a wiseass with that.)

I still think it was the Virgin Mary and road kill, oh well.
well, it will prove interesting to the test interpreter.
why are you taking this test, postie?
i once answered a rorschach test blot with "it looks like a mexican bullfighter strangling his girlfriend/senorita with a guitar string" and the student-trainee went and got their supervisor. i should SO not mess with people's heads like that. had a hell of a time talking my way back out of it.
Nan Nan NAN!! ! I'm not, I'm screwing with heads, trying to do a funny. Now if they actually send ink blot tests home, I have never heard of it. Don't make me put your brain back in, you wouldn't like it.
Now what I'm about to write is the truth and I will so state it. Just a little story of me being bored today.
I'll be back in a few minutes
hey, ya never know. with all the cutbacks at the va and all i thought they might be sending out screening things instead of having people come in.
probably won't be too long before that's the case, ya know?

He decides I need to understand about personal space and he is telling a story to me. My wife is sitting next to me, very striaght in her chair. I'm next to her with a, by then empty, Pepsi can in my hand. So while he explians this expirment of how they would stand face to face and move towards each other till it became uncomforable, in college I'm up to no good and no one see's it. What he was trying to do was explain personal space and it's effects on people. I sized up where he was going with it, the end result and was tired of listening to this type of thing over and over again only to say at the end, I know that. So this is happening while he's talking. I moved my pepsi can about 2 feet from my wife, semi subtle, but obvious. Left it there for a couple 5-10 seconds. Moved it again about a foot away from her. All this time I'm slotched in my chair watching him and my arm with the can appears to be resting on the arm of my chair and I wait. The Wife leans in her chair, a way from me. I had invaded her space. So mean while he gets to the end of his story and I told him what just happened. Actually I interupted it just as she leaned. Just me being bored and controling. People think I lie when I say I can make people almost hate me and they don't know why,even if I have never spoken a word to them. I was like that in school too. Bored sh*tless, so I entertianed myself. Never siad I was a nice guy.
sounds like boredom to me. and a schmuck for a counselor, who hasn't quite figured out where you are enough to know you're already 3 paces ahead of him. doesn't sound like you're being controlling. sounds like a wiseass keeping himself entertained, actually.
i've been known to do similar things, but not point out to folks i was doing it. every now and then someone catches on, i flash 'em a grin, and they treat me with a little more octane after that. or they just back away down the hallway. either one is an improvement, in my eyes.
i'm so tired i'm butchering my metaphors.
what's "slotching" and where's chuck??? he's not coming out to play anymore?
i gotta get to sleep. i just mediated a dispute between a semi-literate homeowner and a HOA board member. it's like living in a fricking trailer park. oy. i do NOT want to be working on my joan of arc merit badge here. i just want to come home after working all day, take a shower, play on the computer or with the cats a bit, listen to some music on my headphones, interact with my kid, and go to sleep. i do NOT want to mediate between the marginally functional neighbors. i so wish we could sell and move.
maybe in the springtime.

they have it in the 'song bird mix' but they have to sterilize the seeds so they don't grow

It is a he and that's a oopsie on that part too. I cringe at the horror that I made that animal endure. He doesn't seem to mind. We were in fear he might be a chimaira (sp?), fairly common in the English Mastiff line. he would be pushing 200 plus at this age if he had, they grow slowly. The most powerful dog I've ever had and I've had big ones before. Very gentle breed, but others just look at his size. When he licks you, you know you have been licked. Even his tongue is strong. I tell him if he keeps it up, I'll make a bathrobe out of em, he still doesn't mind me. Actually he's an easy dog to train and you have to when they're that big. He still does a puppy prance and you have never lived till you have seen a 150lb+ puppy prance. I just crack up evrytime he does, then I run. It's his way of saying, I want to play and I know who will get hurt on that play time.

Merle,,,,,,Errrr,how frustrating.This is one of those times when you get to say..."Some people need to die"I dont know what that really means but it always makes me feel better when I say it.Honestly,I dont know how you survive such a hostile work environment.Scooping doogy poo isnt sounding so bad.
On the other hand,this horrid experience made you write one of the most humorous posts I've read in a while,well done..... It wasnt the event that was funny but the writing style.
Nan,I can't even spell foepa.I skipped our staff meeting(supposed to be a group photo),yesterday.I still havent decided what my "lie" is going to be,if confronted.I did have a dental appointment,I did forget about it(until I remembered it).The truth is that I didnt want to listen to my manager scream and talk to us like we are 5.Maybe I can just tell them I was afraid to have my soul stolen with that black box or it would disclose that I am really a vampire when my image doesnt show up?
ramblerambleramble...
Please add to my thread....Aspie Nation.So far Texas Tim wants to be president,someone is trying to solicite quarters from visiting NT's and I am starting to think it's not being taken seriously...maybe if I moved it to...puzzles,role playing and games?

Chuck, who konked out again, realizes that it is dark outside, and heads for bed. Hopefully rested tomorrow, after a 17 hour snooze. 
(perhaps I do hibernate in the summer).
I couldn't read your sig either, Nan. But I thought I was dreaming.
BTW, your avatar looks like a matador being strangled by his senorita with a guitar string. Who put this empty Pepsi can here? Is my personal space being invaded?

Merle: Always take Nan's advice before you ever take mine. But here is mine: if you have a lesion in the basal ganglia, it causes a sudden unexpected flail-like movement of one arm. It's called hemiballismus.
Next time you are around these two "ladies", knock their asses out. Then say, "OH my goodness! Hemiballismus! Just never know when it will act up!! !"
So, it'll kinda play like this:
"Oh, Hi Karla, Hi Sherry, how are you two jewels today? BAM!! ! OH my goodness! Hemiballismus! The sudden unexpected flail-like movement of one arm that sometimes occurs due to the lesion in my basal ganglia, and... BAM!! ! OH my goodness! There it goes again!! ! Just never know when it might go off! Tea anyone?"

Merle, I can't give you any advice, Nan is the one for that but I do feel for you. I used to miss the invitations that I couldn't turn down, as well. ((((hug)))
