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...

The Violent Wind, a most windy day

Today was one of those days when the wind was so loud and unrelenting in its road, that we couldn't go outside. We closed all the windows too, because it was upsetting, erratic, and closed windows seemed to drown out the pestilence of noise and block the sight of leaves trapped and forced to constantly flap and frown.
It's been many moons since I was so harshly affected by a windy day.
The few short forays out to allow the dog a walk were met with cascades of clamoring leaves and gusts of assault upon my person. My hat needed to be held, as well, and securely.
I'm grateful that I was not required to be out of doors. It was much too unpleasant for me to bear.
