Hope it wasn't too stressful.
I can remember when I went in for mine.
Couldn't speak for the first session. 8O

It was and wasn't... Had a 2 hour drive that wiped me out, especially navigating the city streets and then thinking i was going to be late but got there within 2 mins of my appointment...Was rather hard but was also nice to finally talk to someone that understands the spectrum as her husband and two siblings are both on the spectrum. She felt i had a rather unique way of explaining things that many struggle to explain.. so yeah, totally ASD with ADD and PTSD... Fark!

aussie for a multi-day hike in the outback, i think.


Aboriginals go walkabout now and again. They just disappear and go away for a while.

I'm 1/32 Aboriginal. My sister does genealogy and we have 2 pictures of my great grandfather and my great great grandfather. My great great grandfather didn't like to have his picture taken. It's an Aboriginal thing.

I can qualify as being of Aboriginal heritage and I love that - but I look Caucasian.

One of my mates' grandmothers was full on Japanese but her husband was British and he had blonde hair and blue eyes.

Go figure!

I Still think it is setting in... Been so long feeling like i fell in the middle so to speak but yes at the same time... When i see it in paper then i think it will kick in a little more. I dont know... have known for a while but there is always that doubt mainly due to life experience i think ( the self doubt that is) ... but yeah, good to hear it from a third person point of view. Just feels nice to hear it from someone in real life just to confirm everything one has thought was actually correct and not made up in ones mind... She was also surprised i managed to survive this long after explaining a number of things... She seemed quit taken back.

Hello, ImA.



Hello Raleigh. Are you and your boyfriend still considering to come to Sydney?

I had to move from Padstow to Padstow Heights. The owner pulled down my old house and I don't like my new (old) house.

Boo seems to like it. He's still playing 'attack cat' with me. I think he likes this new place.

He sits on the ironing board and looks out the front wire screen. I think he fantasizes about getting out and eating the cockatoos that feed on the grass across the road. I wish I could let him loose on them. They're sooooo noisy in the morning, they wake me up too early.

I don't know.
We haven't discussed it lately.
I was in rehab for close to a month.
