Where have I been you ask? Well, we ended up in Southport (don't ask) and the car's battery crapped out... Then all the fuses blew out, and NOTHING we did fixed it (it's a 2011 Honda Civic.) A dispute between myself and my stepdad caused me to have a meltdown... In public... But lucky for us the people here are super friendly including the police officer that responded to the episode... And she got us four nights at

a hotel while we wait for a mechanic to fix our car. Who knew that panicking like that would turn things around this way?!

Hello, I was wondering how things were going.

Great to hear it worked out. I was really hoping you could get some housing. Sad, l miss your posts but l know you are keeping the peace in the family. Glad you let us know you are okay, in the light use of "okay".
My schedule goes like this:

Morning: impossible to work, unproductive

After an afternoon nap, I begin to work. Mostly I’m productive but however it depends

I get going at night and I sleep at 3
I leave my kid with the TV for half an hour and come back to him having tiled the hardwood floor by gluing paper to it. Thankfully glue was still wet so I washed it off. He did quite a good job of "retiling" the floor though, lol.

Find an apprentice program for him, but at age 5, it may be tough. Lol
He may be very talented with his hands. Lego kit might be something he really enjoys. By four, my daughter had Legos.

He's not an easy one to keep busy! Ignores almost every toy (including Legos). Seems to prefer hunting down household tools/appliances/items and doesn't seem happy with the toy versions. We'll keep working on alternative outlets.
Why do I keep thinking that women hate me when there are encounters knowing it's not true?

Both but it use to be the opposite but deep in my mind I always wanted it I just did not know how to socialize with them growing up with all male cousins and a type 3 ASD sister.

Maybe you have a feminine side to you and as an adult you just prefer to be in female company. That's cool. I like men with a feminine side.

Maybe you are sensitive, and you don't have to act macho around woman. Maybe you find woman easier to relate to. My boyfriend is that way. He likes female bosses. My mom absolutely adores him. He isn't your traditional type A macho male. You will do great with a female boss if you ever want to work.
Last day of Disney was a thrill ride, but with animals. My mom's had enough excitement.

Alright. I am debating to try Universal since l already did Disneyland and Disney World.
Having a drink now would be like flirting with death. Sounds appealing but I really do not need to go down that road.

I feel the same about caffeine. <sigh>
Except for the death part. :cool:
2nd unexpected time sleeping at a hotel in a row. Deck renovations, sooooo much louder than I'd expected. At least the hotel is really close to here and in a familiar area. Doing it again tomorrow. First time I'd been in a hotel in 3 years, too.

Poison mushrooms are everywhere in the Sacramento area. People will gather wild mushrooms, eat them, and die. People from eastern Asia apparently mistake a local poison mushroom for a safe one that grows in their native lands.
Living with others has ruined my mindset

I need to regain independence, as well as a month to recover

It’s like being an addict. Life is different when you are normal
Having a job that require s so much social intricacies is a mistake for me. I should have been diagnosed when i was a child. Thanks for nothing dear home country
I feel like legally, i should not have been able to have this job. I am not of sound mind and i am not able enough to make important decisions

Not even my parents know about my asd. I could never tell them let alone anyone else. They would not believe it anyway and even if they did they would just treat me as intellectually disabled or an invalid

Think of the "Peter Principle".

How persons in management were promoted to jobs they don't necessarily understand based on prior jobs they may have excelled at. That they often just appear to know what they are doing, even if they aren't.

Crazy, huh? It's ok to feel over your head on the job. it happens. But it doesn't necessarily mean you can't cut it, whatever you decide to do.

Good luck. Maybe you will just get a written reprimand. It might not be as bad as you think.
