I am 43 Female. I am a short tomboy (that is what we called it back in the old days).
I have a BS in education with a minor in microbiology.
I work at an IT company.
I was recently given my official DX of aspergers a few months ago.
I have PTSD from childhood abuse.
Rocks are my thing... and sorting.
I do artwork with omnisketch.
People say I am friendly and smile a lot. They don't know I am usually clueless about whatever they are talking about but I learned they think you understand if you smile at them. Go figure.

My dream life: living in a crystal cave by myself where I could sort rocks all day long, sleep without noise, and wake up to do it all again.

That is it.

I hope you have a good time here. I have a lot of pretty rocks in my front yard.
