What is your first name? Dani
Age: 23 (well almost)
Location: Az
Hobbies and Interests: Reading, listening to music (classic rock/classical especially), thinking.
Why are you here? Figure out how to deal with life and stuff.
When were you diagnosed?(skip if you don't have a disorder): Not officially dx'd w/AS (too old for one? dunno. reason for one? dunno).
Favorite subjects: History, Art History, Astronomy, Pre-Calculus was fun.
Year/Grade: I haven't been in school for awhile now.
Favorite music: Classic Rock, classical/opera, some indie stuff. Favorite band is Led Zeppelin.
Books: SF/fantasy mainly. Classic literature is good. I like mysteries (esp. Holmes) and some historical fiction.
TV shows/Movies: Dr. Who, House, Monk, Nova/Scientific American science show (? I think), History Detectives. But I don't watch much tv anymore. Movies: foreign movies are cool, comic book/fantasy/scifi movies, action-comedy like Rush Hour, anything Monty Python/Mel Brooks.
Instrument: I love violin, I wish I knew how to play 
Do you like sports? Good grief no. I can't see well enough to play and everyone in class always aimed for my glasses. I like to swim though.
Family: Me, mum, da, bro.
Clothing: casual, t-shirt jeans flipflops kind of stuff. I can't do wool/lace/really satiny/silky stuff.
How did you find this website? Wikipedia
Job: used to work in the library. Too many people/too noisy so I left. Looking for a good job where there isn't a lot of "people skills" required. It's hard to find stuff that doesn't have a lot of "customer service".
Plans for the future? Moving out of my folks house. Going back to college (finding the right degree program might help). Getting a good job. Settling down somewhere in the Pacific NW.
