Hadn't touched base with my online gaming partner in a while. Had a long talk with her through messenger last night. I've wondered how we fit together so well, for a long time. I mean we've been gaming partners for I don't recall how many years. When I hit the AS spectrum I kind of wondered if we weren't relating in that way. I have seen more then a few traces of it, hard because she's not real open about all in her life. She opened up more last night. I pushed a little to try the online test a while back. She admited last night she cheated. Some people are afraid of labels I guess, not that it would make her any different. Don't even know for sure if she is AS, but she sure as hell ain't normal, lol. But some how she fears a label. I would still love her anyways.

OOOoooooooohhhhh Zanne, DSOTM ??? LIVE ??? You HAVE got to go, we'll be waiting here for your 'review' of the concert ! !!

I love watching movies alone and I do the same thing! Have you ever had some idiot come in and sit next to you? People do that to me and I get up and move. It's so annoying. I don't like anything spoiling the movie for me. I only go in a big theatre if I want to absorb it.

I laugh inappropriately as well. I remember seeing Sleeping with the Enemy with a friend of mine in Orlando. I laughed so hard at that husband until he would hit her, then I'd get mad. Of course I would end up laughing again. I laughed the hardest at the end. He was exactly like dh minus the violence. When she saw those towels and they were all straightened I just laughed and laughed. Then she went to the cupboards and I knew what she would find. But the funniest thing was at the end when she killed him and he fell over. He had on the same exact shoes that dh had at the time! LOL It was so funny. I went home and told him they made a movie about him. He did NOT find that movie at all humorous. I still laugh when I see it. I'm like, "Honey! You're on!" I get the frown and "That's not funny!"

I dunno, Zanne, I thought it was funny...

'Course, I also am the one that laughs at the line Julia Roberts speaks into the phone, while holding her abuser at bay with a revolver...

"Operator, please get me the police. I just shot an intruder."

Then comes the BLAM!!, and I laugh and laugh... yes, I'm sick, so what?

Go see Roger for me. I'm saddened by the fact that I can never go see Roger Waters, or the rest of Pink Floyd, or Rush, or any of my favorite bands, because a lot of their fans like to - er - inhale some Mother Nature, and the smoke gives me a fierce headache, then (if I ignore the headache) makes my lungs seize up.

What is with that Hartz? I always ask, "Do I look like I'm lonely?" I just don't understand. It ruins the whole experience. If I wanted someone there, I'd invite dh.

I think that a lot of NT's project their wants and needs onto others. These people probably figure that since they would feel lonely if in the middle of a big movie theater, so would we. It just doesn't occur to them that we find that to be heavenly! I've also had that happen in a restaurant. I had recently separated from my husband, and decided to take myself out to a fancy restaurant - with my infant. I sat in a booth, and placed her on the seat next to me. She slept the whole time, while I ate. Well, at least two men tried to approach me and ask if they could join me. I would just shake my head, and adjust the baby blanket. The look on their faces when they realized that I had a baby with me was very, very funny. Did they think I was going to ask for child support?

"Just call me Igor." ROFL I had forgotten about that. Dh used to say that to me in this really funny voice. That's from Young Frankenstein, isn't it? I know he picked that up from some movie or something.

"Damn your eyes ! !!"

"Too late."

LOL


It's said that Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein right after she lost a baby. I think she'd had many miscarraiges and she had a dream that inspired Frankenstein (that and some opium). Anne Rice has said that Interview with a Vampire was inspired by the death of her young daughter. It's funny how they both wanted to believe in eternity, but ultimately thought it would create monsters.
