    New Obsession: Beethoven's Fifth Symphony in C Minor

    My accommodations at work FINALLY got approved!

    I can now wear a pin which displays my selective mutism :) Also, my managers have been super understanding and accommodating for what tasks I know I can do, and understanding of my abilities and limitations. I was worried because I'd heard this particular location wasn't the kindest towards...

    I screwed up with a dear friend because I’m autistic

    Long story short, I made some mistakes with a friend of mine because I let my mask down around her.

    Do a lot of us just like figuring out how things work?

I woke up and the piece was on my mind, and I thought 'Gee I wonder about the inner workings of this arrangement'. Is this common for us to have an insatiable need to explore...
