Time for another update! I'm nearing the end of this internship, and nearing the end of my time as a student. This fall, I'll have my medical license. I can't wait for the moment I finally get to call myself a doctor. Things are looking up, I'm getting great performance reviews and I get tons of...
I’ve read, watched, or otherwise got into several things in my childhood. Of course, that period of my life had nothing to do with vegetarianism, let alone veganism. Anyway, several of them turned into mixed-bags ever since these things I’ve found online shocked me into determinedly switching to...
These are called cookies, but are closer to candy, in my opinion. They are pretty good and very easy to make. They do not require an oven, so are not so bad to cook when it is hot weather. They have oats in them, but it comes out tasting like it is coconut instead of oats.
No-Bake Chocolate...
I do not want to abandon readers. I feel as if my brains are being baked by the summer heat. I do not feel like doing much thinking because of having baked brains. My way of reconciling these two factoids is to tell you about cookbooks And internet sites that have given me some of my favorite...
My first child had been born 2+ years earlier, ultimately via an emergency cesarean, over the course of 2 terrifying days. While in hospital I counted 10 consulting docs/ OBs-- none of whom were my own doctor. Gong show. PTSD symptoms and PPD. Took a lot (mostly growing to love my...

People have a habit of giving advice when you really didn't ask them for it. Most of the times it's pretty redundant or even patronizing advice, but this was different.
I worked a late shift together with someone I hadn't spoken to before. It was just the two of us in the office. Because it was...
But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way.
John 4:23
How do we worship God in spirit and in truth? To understand this we must first accept the idea that the...

"I hope you find someone who is brave enough to enter your storm, and respects you enough to love the size of your waves. I hope you find someone who will relish the calm you can have and who is eager to set sail on the expanse of your mind. I hope you find someone that can't escape the love...
haiku x1
I bought a book of haiku in the first book store that
I was ever in (not counting the school book store,
which definitely didn't count.)
This is the one I remember.
I still have the book, but without looking the one I
remember is:
old pond
frog jump in
water sound
Yeah.

I read and reviewed a chapter of fan fiction as requested, this morning. I received an error message when I tried to post it because the original fan fiction had been deleted.
As others on this site have commented, you need to be patient when you post something on this site. A lot of us here...
My apt tends to run about 20 degrees hotter than outside in hot weather. I turned to an old remedy for this problem called Okie air conditioners. They are easy to make. They do not take long to make and they work especially well in small spaces, and are cheap to run. They are also easier on the...
I was doing a lot of thinking. How my parental figure failed me as a child and young adult. How important is the status in society when you can't provide for your child's special needs. Like needing back braces, eye glasses, braces for over bites that affect the jaw, getting your child evaluated...
Tonight I had to tell my sister the honest truth. That talking on the phone makes me very uncomfortable and that it had nothing to do with her. Any one else hate talking on the phone except to make business calls?
So it's been precisely 4 days since I found out that I am very likely on the spectrum. And the more I find out, the more I am sure this is what's wrong with me. I feel wierdly comforted. Like when I blurt out all the inappropriate things that make people uncomfortable - instead of retreating...
I have been working on development of better social skills most of my life, so I have more of them in some ways, than an average Aspie or Autie. I plan to share some of the little steps that helped me to do this, so other interested Autism Spectrum folks can do the same.
