Angela's Blog

Most days I am okay, but the truth is that some days I really do feel like I'm on a stage in the middle of this gigantic Broadway-style synchronized dance routine, only I'm the only one on the stage who doesn't know the steps.

In some ways I am classic aspie. I have been known to get ready for work and actually be out my front door and down my stairs on the way to the bus stop before realizing I forgot both socks and shoes. I could forget my own birthday if it didn't happen to fall near a holid… Continue

Seattle Area Aspie Women's Group

Karen Roe's women's AS group is starting up again next week -- I've been part of them a couple times and it's good for brainstorming common social problems in a supportive, fairly free-form environment, getting advice about sticky situations, and generally meeting other women with AS. Diagnosis is not an issue, and she's pretty AS-positive, which is refreshing. It's not a free group, but it's not prohibitively expensive, so if you're interested, let me know and I'll forward you the info email. L… Continue

Thinking about environmental footprints and ways to improve...

Okay, I am seriously alarmed when I use "environmental footprint" calculators and see that my household's is a quarter of the US national average, because we are not that eco-friendly. The sheer amount of waste that the average person must cause to end up with those kind of numbers is scary. Then again, when you consider my workplace doesn't recycle at all, I guess the business side adds up quickly too.

Things we already do:
-Don't own a car (Didn't in rural northern… Continue

pleased

Today I was able to give away a lot of stuff to a family who just moved from New Orleans. They are going to be able to pass it on to another family moving from far away as they get settled, so it kills several birds with one stone -- they get the stuff they need, I get to get rid of things I don't really need, and less new stuff goes into the system. And now I can keep my eyes out for a real loveseat on Craigslist instead of the futon we had. Until then, our living room is attractively zen-looki… Continue

Disregard the email below, as this is another variant of the Nigerian 419 scam...they are asking for money, and i got the same email as well...we should flag this person from the network...just being justifiably paranoid....

If so, how did it go? I feel like I haven't talked to you in forever--I sure as heck haven't been on this site in forever, either. So I hope you're doing well and stuff, and I'll talk to you soon. :)

At 2:52pm on February 7, 2008, Erithianopius said…: Hi. You sound like a very cool person! Your personality sounds like mine, in the sense of being intelligent, rational, and having a unique sense of humor. I am an environmentalist and I am studying to become a conservation biologist. I wonder what my environmental footprint is. Just curious, what kind of things do you write?

At 4:10am on January 6, 2008, bjorker said…: Hello Angela. I see you're from Seattle? I'm up in Lynnwood, and can relate to a lot of what you say here. IE, I am also 23, have a "strange" sense of humor, and am extremely random. Hi! :)

At 12:24pm on January 5, 2008, Amy said…: Aaaaangela! I saw your link to here on LJ, and I thought it looked nifty, so I joined! Plus I saw you were on here, so that made me want to join, too. ^_^
