What is your first name? Ayn (pronounced "Ann")
Age: 35
Location: Portland, OR
Hobbies and Interests: Reading, collecting, listening to music, vegetarian cooking, knitting, MMORPGs
Why are you here?
When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder): Self diagnosed April 2009
Favorite music: Grateful Dead, Van Morrison, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, Bob Dylan, Counting Crows
Books: Stories by H.P. Lovecraft are favorites that I reread on a regular basis. I also enjoy historical fiction, cookbooks, and horror (Horror that is really horror, not a romance novel that happens to include vampires).
TV shows/Movies: Things I watch on the television include Top Chef, classic films on TCM, various cooking programs on Food Network and the Cooking Channel. My favorite films The Last Winter and Food, Inc.
Do you like sports? Absolutely not. I do enjoy swimming in a relaxed fashion and a bit of hiking, but for the most part sports are to be avoided for me.
Family: I have the best boyfriend ever and we have been together for six years.
Clothing: Jeans. Always jeans. 99.9% of the time paired with a shirt that either features something Grateful Dead related or a tree.
How did you find this website? We are moving in a little over a month, something that is rather unsettling and distressing for me. Even though we are simply moving to a different unit in the same building, it's not an event I cope with particularly well. The last time we moved is when we found that I fit the criteria for AS. I came across this site when looking online for helpful information regarding Aspies and moving.
Job: Homemaker
Plans for the future? Spend lots of time with my boyfriend and his family, experience great music, learn new things, and cook and eat amazing food.
