If that makes sense. Things go bing-bing-bing around the walls of my head too much.<BR/><BR/>There's a lot of tricky subjects to talk about, usually I avoid talking much unless I'm just with people I'm relatively comfortable with. It's at least a little different online, there's enough time to think about whether it's a good idea to say some thing or other.<BR/><BR/>That's cool. I like snow, though rainy weather is my favorite kind (it's easier to play in without getting, uh, frozen fingers and stuff, plus it makes nice sounds and things like that).<BR/><BR/>No problem about the reading, I spend a good chunk of my free time looking for new blogs to read so I'm usually happy to find one that I like reading.Fleecyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04918012773089750636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8888467463194468789.post-52605069986556417642008-12-08T11:55:00.000-04:002008-12-08T11:55:00.000-04:00Fleecy - this is exactly why I created this blog. ...Fleecy - this is exactly why I created this blog. I wanted there to be a place where I could discuss what I was going through, to connect with others experiencing similar situations and those who are just curious to learn what Autism is all about.<BR/><BR/>And that's true, you can discuss a negative thing if someone else brought it up first. If a lot of people are around, though, you need to be more careful of what you say to not offend anybody, unless you have a very strong opinion on the matter and you are going to blurt it out no matter what.<BR/><BR/>And it did snow yesterday. I was so excited, even though it didn't stick. Snow is my favorite, espescially when it is white and pristine. Unfortunately here it doesn't stay that way very long since I live in a city, but once it gets cold enough we get a ton of snow.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for reading, by the way!pinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03021125367864652400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8888467463194468789.post-85208996824329175112008-12-08T09:45:00.000-04:002008-12-08T09:45:00.000-04:00It's good, in a blog setting like this, to mention...It's good, in a blog setting like this, to mention some of the not so good things <I>as well as</I> the good things about being autistic, I think. It gives a more realistic view of the reality: autistic people are neither perfect lollipop angels, nor living nightmares. Just people. Good stuff and bad stuff and neutral stuff, it's all there.<BR/><BR/>I think usually it's also appropriate to talk about a negative thing if someone else brought it up first. Depends on the situation, though. Tricky stuff.<BR/><BR/>Oh, snow. Did it snow where you are? I like snow, I think my favorite thing about it is somehow it has a dampening quality on everything. Makes the outside seem really quiet. It's very cool (pun not intended, sorry).<BR/><BR/>There's no snow here yet, but a bird bath in the back yard is now more of a bird skating-rink. There's a bunch of leaves stuck in it, which looks cool.Fleecyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04918012773089750636noreply@blogger.com
