Don't feel bad, Georga. When I tried to sign up for a Yahoo id, I

couldn't get any version of my name: Tina . So I got mad and

used a name I made up for a charater in my fantasy novel (not

published but still looking for a home) I don't think this is

weird...but my husband thinks I'm nuts. He scored a 32 on the AQ

test. He NEVER shops unless it's for soda because I rarely buy that

and he has a serious caffiene addiction. He's an electrician though

and has to do things the same way all the time. He drives me insane

with the TV. If he's home, the TV is on, even if he's outside for

hours at a time. I turn it off, he walks through the room, turns it

on, and right out the door without even pausing to see what's on.

Way-Hey,

You could be talking about my husband here.

He has photographic memory, absorbs information like a sponge and is

higly skilled at well EVERYTHING.

I swear he can turn his hand to anything, whether it be building a

computer or making a blouse for me, you name it he can do

it...although he say " I can't open a tin of beans with a banana'.

He never boasts...so I will...he has 26 letters (qualifications)

after his name.

He isn't socially inept at all but he shy at first with people he

doesn't know.

He is full of 'useless' information, and you cannot argue with him

because he remembers every single word so I always lose.

Georga,

I've heard the author speak twice and she's amazing! You can see and hear

her aspieness when she's talking about it. She took drama in high school

and college, so she's 'acting' when she's speaking so she can get through

it. She tells you she'll answer questions about aspergers after the

conference, but don't expect her to be your friend! She knew her husband

was the man for her when he told her she was strange, then asked her out

again (Jacquie, made for each other like you and Marc!). She diagnosed

herself when her daughter got diagnosed.

Hey, if someone tells you you are strange than asks you out again I would see

that as a good thing. Means you didn't scare them off and they might have a

chance of understanding. LOL
