Hello everyone. I hope your day is going well. It is 72 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. I have the windows open. The 22 year old autistic young man is outside repeating the same stuff over and over again at the top of his lungs. It doesn't seem to be bothering the cats though. In fact they seem fascinated by him. I was up incredibly late last night/this morning. I didn't go to bed until about 2 am. I woke up around 8 and got up to get something to drink. I went back to sleep and didn't get up until about 1 pm. I could have rolled over and gone back to sleep but I forced myself to get out of bed. I haven't accomplished a darn thing so far this afternoon besides lighting some candles. I love having candles burning. Sometimes I have 2 going--1 in the kitchen and 1 in the bathroom. Today I have a 3rd lit on the coffee table in the front room. What's everyone else up to this afternoon?

Heh. Our "shouting guy" hasn't been around for a couple of days. Are you sure he's autistic and not schizophrenic? I am heading to Guitar Center this afternoon to support students who are playing at a "concert" we're staging.

No I've heard his mother tell people at the pool that he is autistic.

I have never heard of those two types of people being confused.

@TheHorse His is just speech, his motor skills are fine. He screams when he is mad and doesn't know what to say and he talks in another language some. I feel bad because I don't know what he is saying and hope he doesn't think I am ignoring him.

Same old same old I suppose. It feels a little warmer today, but I suspect that's to be expected.

It was SO hot in the house yesterday; and we kept the ceiling fans running. Didn't want to turn the air on because the temps are going to drop today. It will be in the 40s and 30s this week. So tired of this winter weather.

I would love to be able to burn some candles. The problem? My roommate's cat.
