We live almost right next to a home for autistic people. Every morning they'll come shuffling by, moaning and laughing, mumbling incoherently.
A blessing.
Gives me a much-needed dose of sanity every time I see them.
"Normal" people are slaves to social dogma, having spent their entire lives building up such exquisite filters for what is accceptable, that they have in effect walled themselves in, acknowledging only what is deemed appropriate. Boring, grey, dead.

Normality
Thursday, 20 October 2005
I've been quite busy lately. Alas, I've been busy doing everything I should not, avoiding what I must (reeeeaaaad). But I have read some none the less. Here you see a typical example of my... notetaking. colours indicate... colourfulness. POI of course, my wife just pointed out to me what pretty patterns I was making in my books. Ah yes, the arduous life of science and discovery :P

Halloween
Autumn is closing in, and what better way to celebrate than having an intimate dinner party with a few friends, all dressed up in costumes, and getting so drunk you can't remember your own name?
Nothing, that's what.

W00t
We're getting our new bed today! yay. The old one is 120 cm. wide, the new one is going to be 180! Oooooooooh yeah. This has been an announcement by the board of telling trivial boring stuff to the public. Because we care.

The reading!
Ack, so much i haven't read, or even laid eyes on! I'm about 150 pagesout of sync. Not that this has hindered me so far, but it most probably will at some point, so I'd better start trucking.
Andreas behaved very badly on the way home, so he's not allowed any TV today. The good thing about punishing him is that his one-hour a day TV privileges, and candy, are both bad for him anyway, so taking them away does him good in the long run. As does learning boundaries of course, but the end result is less bad concience for his parents ;)
