Prepare to enter the wild and wooly world of an adult with Aspergers Syndrome, a form of autism characterized by intellignce, quirks, social difficulties and downright strange and oddish behaviours.

People with Aspergers generally are high functioning in everyday life but have great difficulty connecting with others due to the inability to read faces, body language and subtle verbal clues. They also tend to take words literally and have a hard time multi-tasking.

Oversensitivity to touch (clothing has to be soft and often the tags removed), light (do not leave home without the sunglasses), sound (loud noises and noisey places are avoided), taste (many Aspies have quite a limited diet and are frequently very picky eaters) and smells makes the everyday existence more of a challenge.

Fasten your seatbelts and come on in...

No complaining

A very odd couple of days, indeed. For the second day in a row, my son has performed his chores and tasks without a single complaint, whine or lament. He even took a bath without a typical, full strength rebel yell!!! I thought yesterday was a pure anomaly....he's vehemently complained ever since I've known him, lol. Now, he appears to have changed in most pleasant ways.
Definitely had to write this down for the record!!!
