The Dino-Aspie Ex-Café (for Those 40+... or feeling creaky)

Post Reply New Topic

Hello, I_Am_andajoy. Welcome to the cafe. Would it be impertinent of me to ask if I might shorten your username when I address or refer to you? To I Am. Just easier for me to type. Anyway, don't eat the muffins. They're moldy.

Sorry, I didn't see that you are - Amanda. Well that solves that. You have many lives? I think I should go back to bed and start over. I'm just not "gettin' it"

Meerkat stalls? I thought those little creatures had a Manor. But of course Animal Planet is not Earth, or not the same one. So try try harder because no soup for you yet, and no muffins either, and no, no muffin has warned me about you... yet. But this one might. Thanks. i like muffins. but i guess the no-feeding sign does not apply to you, since you are just handing out muffins with your scruples-less hands... like old trolls and bingo. I-28!

Amanda or IAM or AJ or anything nice is fine.

if you are offering me a nice life(lives) like a muffin, then, thanks. but she knows with suspicion that "have a nice life" is what people say when they want to kick you out of their cafe, or wherever... so hopfully you are not kicking.

oooooooooooooookayeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I AM going back to bed.

Yipes! Too true. Please ignore the Aspie blunder. I thought it sounded more interesting than the traditional/conventional "Have a nice day", which is hardly "British". And now I'm all apologetic for something I certainly did not mean. Oh! the tangled webs I weave...

Anyway, Meercat Manor... I seem to visit my local meercats (at Longleat) on a fairly regular basis. They have a hill, but not a manor, and I don't think they are allowed in the house. Those discovered meercats get all the good accommodation. I don't think either lot have any stalls - maybe a fair number of stools, though. Messy. Time for me to shut up.

OMG - My "bedroom" has disappeared! I opened the door - and, and, and -
it wasn't my bedroom anymore - it was...........

yay! sorry to make you apologetic (hehe!) i was just checking because this is the first day i have "talked" online to any aspie people, so usually i type responses in triplicate, one for each possible meaning i can think of, but that tends to annoy people and they accuse me of being stupid on purpose, which is of course, silly, because i can assure you it is quite natural, although i do see the humor in it too.

so, i am quite delighted to have a nice life, because it IS much better sounding than a nice day.

and "Meercat Manor" is a TV show in america that is just an animal documentary, but they present it like a soap opera, and try to make it very dramatic and moving, so people watch the meercats and cry when they die and stuff, and get all worked up about them. it's apparently a reality-tv phenomenon. or something.

I already was one. See you again, hopefully soon! If not, then most certainly later!

Can I keep her? Huh huh can can I. She won't eat much I promise and I'll I'll I'll make sure she's covered at night and and I'll I'll make sure she...can I puleeeeze keep her?

G-42 BLINGO!!

Yes ladies and gentleman I do believe we have a winner here.

Yes, you have won a can of Spam(TM). Congratulations. Let's have a round of applause. It's very intoxicating, doesn't taste to bad either.

Cheeese Louise, don't they teach you to knock before you come in a guys room? Damn I thought they taught you about doors in the Convent. You didn't happen to see an eye go floating by did you?

It's easy to see that you're loved here, Lauri. So the news that you are going away (only for a while, hopefully), saddens me. I will miss my sister and we never got to plant our freak flags together. That sucks. I hope whatever is causing your departure is not serious or harmful to you in anyway, and that you will be back in the saddle again soon. I am giving you my best long distance hug. ((()))

Sometimes there's just no time to knock.

I can't stay and play for long today,HAVE to go turn in my paycheck stubs to SSI for my daughter, and also HAVE to start writing her "grant request" for this year. In Alaska she can get up to $2,500.00 for stuff and respite care for me. I LOVE Alaska. Last year I got her "Dollar a minute" private swimming lessons. She LOVED it,but never did learn to swim. This year I'm trying to get her a "Dizzy Disc Jr." (for her vestibular sensing or something like that) and a "Comfy Chair", it's like a "Foof" Chair but the comfy people are the only ones who'll ship to Alaska. It's a 7.5 foot beanbag filled w/ memory foam. And some other stuff her occupational therapist picked out for her. You only get about 1/2 of what you ask for so this year I'm "padding " her list. Has to be turned in by Oct. 5th. so I have to hurry up and start "talking the talk" for them.
I allready miss Blessedmom, and I just met her, miss Nannorob also. Her gentle encouragment is what gave me the courage to venture forth in the cafe in the first place. (I bet your all sorry about that now cause I know I DO" ramble on") Oh yeah, no "Meercats" here, however I do live in the "ShRew Studio" It's kinda cool in it's own freaky way. Now when I hear strange noises I don't think its the ghosts of my mom and my daughter, it's just the shrews. But deep-down, I still HOPE it's my mom and my daughter

Hey Postie.
Nope, no snarks.
Lotta sharks out there, tho.
Nope, never going back to Texas.
Sick and 10 pounds lighter now. Can't recommend it.
On the fairy - You were looking for a fairy. I think they're out of season right now.
Don't forget your coke can to take to the appointment.


Lauri'll be back when she lands. He's taking the computers.




PS- New kid? Amanda something? Beware of Postie when he's straithg and people who have Cthulhu in their avatars. Dangerous types, they are. Will slip you a loaded muffin and all sorts of things can happen then. Especially if there is duct tape involved. Watch out for them when they have the duct tape.
