For those of you who have been following my blog, for the past two years I have been attending a small storefront independent Evangelical church even though I consider myself an agnostic. Every Sunday Pastor has made his Come to Jesus speech and every Sunday I walk out just as unredeemed as...
Well, since I was up & useless, I decided to push myself (almost needed a cattle prod!) & get something done. There were some hidden pockets of junk floating around. There were 3 handbags I had that I never ever carry. There was an accumulation of well organized papers BUT none of it was...
A few days ago I wrote about the controversy surrounding a local abortion clinic that had been shut down due to safety and health violations. Now that photos of conditions inside this clinic have been released, one would think that its supporters would step back and say, hey, wait a minute...
I was going to post this last night when I wrote it but I got chatting to somebody and forgot about it, so here it is, word for [unedited] word:

Usually I am not one to complain, but I will, just this one time though?
My landlady just told me the house is going on the market.
Yet...
Yesterday I watched a documentary on Buck Brannigan, the horse whisperer who goes around giving clinics for people and their problem horses. Now Buck came from an extremely abusive childhood and could have been that way himself but he deliberately and consciously made the choice not to be...
Random point before I write what I wanted to
How the hell can work be dead... until the moment I sign on and calls start fecking flooding through? What the hell? How is that fair? Bloody buggers!
Does anyone else get really confused when you are trying to do something, like typing or...
Recently there has been a controversy over whether an area abortion clinic should reopen. This clinic was closed for numerous safety and health violations. Furthermore it seems that the doctor running the clinic has had numerous malpractice charges filed against him.
Now it would seem that...
The other day I was watching the Tom Hanks-Julia Roberts comedy "Larry Crowne". Larry is a middle-aged man who has been happily employed by the U-Mart Corporation--made employee of the month 9 times--until one day he is called into the office. There, a team from Human Resources awaits him...
Advice peoples.
I am feeling so on edge today. Stomach is full of knots, I've got a headache and feel really anxiety like. I'm not sure why I feel like this, I know that after a few weeks of being good and not having time off (calling in sick, leaving early etc) work I start feeling like I...
Tonight I was doing therapy with my therapist and she made an interesting observation. She said that clinics like hers should start preparing themselves for an onslaught of hand problems because so many people are gaming and texting all the time. I'm afraid she may be right. Since I started...
Q: Dr. Grandin, how do you deal with bullying?
A: I found it easier to deal with bullying if I surround myself with people that have the same interests as I do. (Dr. Grandin)
I am not sure whether this is true for our special needs community anymore.
Look at the cases of the Brony, Bus...
I am writing this late at night because I can't sleep. Earlier this evening against my better judgement I accompanied some of my church members down to the homeless mission. I wish I hadn't gone, and I wish I could apologize to the residents there over what they were forced to endure in the...
I listened to it over radio. It may be harder in Singapore than in Britain to get employment support for learning disabilities (where 15% of people with learning disabilities are employed, already at one of the highest levels of employment in the world), but I think Singapore and other Asian...
Christmas is over, thank God. Now there is just New Year's to get through and then everything will get back to normal.
Ok, here's the deal when it comes to the major holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years. These are all family holidays. I live alone. I have no family nearby. This...
The other day when I came home from work I found that the power was out, so after a while of sitting around in an increasingly cold house, I decided to call some of my friends to find out the extent of the outage. I reasoned if they were all out of power, too, then it might be awhile before it...
Well, time for #12. Still ranting & raving about all aspects of this latest shooting. After this most recent crime that stopped the nation, I began to wonder about something. Perhaps it is politically incorrect or a little crass to wonder about such things, but what can I do? These thoughts are...
Well, the supposed Mayan apocalypse has come and gone without incident or any noticeable change in the environment. Several area schools closed for the day partly for weather-related reasons but mostly because of rumors of weapons and violence. I was in the bathroom at work around ten when the...
Currently in the Netherlands there is some debate going on about employment and disability.
Reason;
The government decided that come 2013 companies that pretty much exist to hire people with disabilities (social workshops) will not be subsidized anymore.
Now, I can fully understand...
My favorite word of the dictionary is, for now, 'poltroon'. It means, according to Merriam-Webster, 'a spiritless coward'.
Look at me, I have Asperger's Syndrome and AD/HD, I also have dyslexia. My mind jumbles up fast. To add to that, I am not Albert Einsteins, who has the same conditions as...
I believe the parents should decide the child's religion for the first 18 years of the child's life. After all, the child still needs his parents to decide upon things. After age 18, things can change, and parents should respect the child's choice.
My parents will probably not respect my...
