Alan! Do you know that I also have dyslexia? Either it's milfder than yoursd or I have been punished enough into correcting it before I allow it to be seen. I am just not doing the correcting at the moment. have you noticed the increased error rate when i am tired or stressed?


Yeah I did, it shows in your sentence structure. I didn't know this until really recently. More then a couple here that use that same type of structure. I'm beginning to think mine is faIRLY MILD (f***ing cap button) but it gets worse the longer I push myself to be sure. Think I can find the link where it's discussed, it will show up here in a bit.


Do you mind me making fun of it? Some of my unedited dyslexia, malapropism, literalism, and free association made people laugh so hard that I started using it and then even accentuating it for the sake of humor. (I edited that 3 times.)

I went back and read #1 and now it has left my tired brain before I got back to post it. I think right now I shouldn't let my mind wander. It's too small to be out all alone. :roll:

I'm heading to bed with a good book. G'night/afternoon/morning to you all!

I like banter, picking on each other, have no problem with it. And that goes for anytime. I've got serious thoughts on my mind right now, lurking in the back someplace and they tend to creep into what I put here. I'm in the Cafe because , well cause I like it and those that come here and those yet to come. I don't think it's hard to pick out my dopey humor, but it might be sometimes. Hell we're aspies, mixing stuff up and not seeing stuff is just part of what we do. It's all good and if it isn't I'll say so, rightly or wrongly. I'm not that damn shy in here. Ain't the net wonderful :wink:

Thank goodness for that. there have been times in my life that the only thing that kept me goinf was banter. of course it didn't help that I was doing it alone.

So, do you want to discuss the dark stuff or do you want to do what all NICE people on earth are supposed to do: suppress it and pretend it will go away on its own?

Dark stuff? It's all so plain to me, light shines bright in my eye when I see it. It's a Grandson. Don't really need to discuss, just one of those things that happen in life. Not pleasent and it tends to stick a bit. I'm fine with it. I just don't like to see people on the fast track to suicide and not even know they're doing it. It will be delt with and nothing that needs to be discussed in my refernce here. If it were to come up as a topic, fine, I have some insight on the slow path, been there and done that. But generaly not why I'm in here. I know where to go on the site for it.

Yeah it was a double post and I knew Merle was on because of it. She IS the force!!

(Merle did it) (I fixed it)

Well, I am sorry that you are troubled and wish I could do something to relieve you pain, but it seems that you prefer not to get into that here or now, which makes sense to me, so . . .

I'm trying to figure what to do with you.

Like, maybe cause you more pain?

Or, challenge you to a duel?

Or, would you like to walk down memory lane? Do you still have one?

Or, would you like to gang up on somebody who's not here so that it might be easier to win an argument with them?

I mean we might at least have half a chance?

Or, would you like me to tell you a story?

Like the tree that fell down this morning right where I was standing 4 hours before.

Or, are you tired now, old man and need to go to sleep?

Hello?

tap . . . tap . . . tap . . (thick as a rock, and as hard as one too)

Just on a music ride right now. Dunno where I'm headed on the net tonight and into the wee hours of the morning. Probably be back later though.

OK, then. Good night. Am writing to someone on the other side of the world, and to someone here. But probably won't go to sleep until 4-6 AM, unless I am already asleep, and all of this is merely a figment of your imagination.

I was asked once, “Why are Aspies so different?”

I answered, “It’s the secret ingredients from an old family recipe.”

Pleased to announce, I had a dream. Yup, pretty proud of myself. It even had numbers in it. Yup, they even changed the price on me and it confused me. Alas, it was of chocolate swiss rolls and creamsicles. Don't even remember if I got to eat them. Going to be curious if the swiss rolls cost $1.19 or $1.15 and will be totaly mystified if they cost anything different. Now that was for the extra large size, not a bad deal, either way. I might need a dream interpreter if it different. Of course going to sleep a bit on the hungry side might have had a dream influnce. Naw couldn't be that. I do believe my spirit guide left some years ago and they pretty much wanted me awake at those times. However, one never really knows, they have a strange way of showing things and being there in those odd moments. Yes indeed they do. Some how I would have never thought swiss rolls and creamsicles would be of a major import in my life. Who would have ever thunk it, not I. I plan on fixing this delima very soon, in real time. This cosmic event will be at the local fast service store and will no doubt astound everybody in a 3632 mile radius. I do so much like vision quests. And this time I don't even have to fast. This life is getting so much better, yes it is. A lazy man's vision quest, damn I would have never thought it.
