Feel free to send me a PM!

I got up to use the loo and I couldn't get back to sleep, so I've completed another one of my happy pills on the mini knitting loom. If I'm having a tough time, I might as well make light of that with humour. I think my happy pills are a fun way to do that.

I have been up for almost 2 hours. I have almost an hour before my wife gets up for work. Even though I'm home alone all day, these alone hours before the sun rises are the best time of day

My dog just ran off for the first time, because he was outside when my wife left for work. I had to drive out to find him, and then he was limping back. He knows I am upset with him right now, he is lying in my room looking away from me pouting.

Salty soup is dead nice

I like them. They look like peanuts

Thank you

Every time an icon from the 60s or 70s passes away, I lose faith in humanity because I know that the dream of a peaceful world is slipping away.

I wish I was going out tonight

In which how autism communities and ADHD communities are different.

Like the attitudes over giftedness and talent for example;

Autistics sees giftedness as one of the many possible combinations and factors of one's cognitive profile.
It does not make the condition easier or harder. Really. Just gaining more range of coping skills that still needs manual work and mental energy.
Even those with low IQ and/or high support gets a chance of having a particular talent -- savantism exists as a part of the spectrum.
Being mistaken as gifted is a sort of social boost, though more of a double edged sword for being the one that 'redeems' one from 'social deficits' by standing out more positively than negatively.

ADHD sees giftedness as something that makes their condition easier or less severe. Meaning, less energy required to cope with ADHD.
Talents are side effects of their dysregulated attention of hyperfocusing on a skill or topic.
There is no notions of savantism there.
And somehow particularly dislikes being mistaken for giftedness simply because the behaviors only matches it.
If they're particularly allistic (which is more likely than not), the social priority lies differently from autistics with or without ADHD.

I love noses me.

It's not very often that you meet a person who doesn't suit their own nose

I think I might decorate

I've ordered the stuff. I've gone for sprayed ivory. First I'll need to strip off the old wallpaper off and put lining paper on before painting

Its dead exciting when you make an old room into a new one
