I'll be 39 this year - if I don't buy my own birthday presents I either get really awful ones or none at all - and I am actually pretty easy - a book or a beanie kid makes me happy

and dolly, my first is effected the worst by the ASD the second - not too bad - and my last is the easiest by far and has only quite mild symptoms - so mine got better as i had more practice. and mine were all born exactly 1 year 364 days apart from each other. All born in March the eldest in 1996 on the 10/3 the next in 1998 on the 9/3 and the last on the 8/3/00 - and no - we were not trying to have a millenium baby - I was trying to get my tubes tied and when I finally got to the hospital I WAS 18 WEEKS PREGNANT

I love those t.shirt ideas, they are great. and the badges.

am off to bed cos Miss B and me are off to the big smoke tomorrow to see a show, and out for a meal before catching a train home.

am looking forward to it.

We are going to see Avenue Q and have front row seats ๐Ÿ™‚

Hey if you want a good book to rwad
try Look Me in the Eye - John Elder Robison. It is an autobio, John is an Aspie. The book is brilliant and I found myself nodding at almost every page.

And if you want something else - read the one by his brother - Augusten Burroghs - Running With Scissors, also an auto bio.
That one is incredible, the family was totally screwed up yet Augusten and John did survive. Running with scissors is also a movie but there is lots more in the book. Oh I did watch the movie - it is listed as a comedy, but I found it heartbreaking that this boy/young man grew up like this.


anyway there be Al's movie and book critique for the day:)


sleep well guys.
