    So, I just organized the laundry in piles that are the most efficient to wash, dry, and distribute and somehow my mom still mixes the wrong clothes together. I mean, why even bother at this point? Oh, yeah, my brain is built different.

    Worst thing to happen today: My headphone's chord died, and now I had to use those terrible earbuds when going out...It's a good thing I have a spare at home.

    So, apparently, me flapping and clapping my hands was so interesting to my co workers that they began doing it too. And just like that I became a trendsetter.

    It could go viral. Lol. Just don't slap your boss with flap happy hands, that may end poorly. Lol

    So, according to some people I know, an interest in paleontology is a sign of autism. Don't think I ever heard that before. But yes, I have an interest in dinosaurs and biology.

    I think that's quite a narrow-minded statement of those people. Not the content of the interest points towards autism, but the intensity of that interest. I guess some interests might be more stereotypical than others, but in the end everyone can be interested in anything, NT or ND. It's the intensity that counts.

    @AuroraBorealis exactly what you said. My childhood friend is autistic and one of his special interests was dinosaurs. Intensity/other factors are what determine what is a special interest vs just a hobby.

    If you don't find dinosaurs interesting to some degree you probably don't have a pulse. Perhaps could be classified as some kind of root vegetable.

    Just finished organizing my books by publishing company. It was a lot of work, but it was worth it.

    I do the same thing, basically. Mostly by publishing line (Penguin Classics) or some by publisher (New Directions). It's fun.

    I just realized I went the whole day without talking. Huh. I wonder if its normal to be better at communicating non verbally than verbally.

    I wish people were a little more clear when giving out instructions...Then, maybe I wouldn't do things wrong all the time.
