The way my Aspergers presents is like being a native German speaker - and I *think* I've learned English pretty well-- Except half the time I'm talking to someone who is positive that they are speaking English, but in fact they are speaking French.

It can be so fucking fatiguing.

Fatiguing in your head it must be, no? C'est dommage, mais tous les meilleurs types s'expérience aussi.

aargh. I'm sure they do. My mother in particular-- she is furious with me because I advanced this notion to her. An entire lifetime of her talking to my father, especially, and me as well, in language we cannot parse. It makes her furious! She's speaking perfectly plainly!

It must be our fault, we are lazy and inattentive. It gives her a good reason to be abusive, in her own, special, French way.

Your mother and my mother are obviously the same person.

You me and a lot of other people with mothers in the 80+ age range in particular, it seems. It's like PTSD.
Growing up during the Depression, maybe?

I wish someone would write a translations dictionary.

I have a bit of rage inside that I can't seem to quell. I can't place exactly what the problem is. Sure, things are going wrong, but things are always going wrong. Usually I can move on... Right now I feel like pummeling someone or something. The last couple of nights I haven't been able to sleep well.

 

[Collar_N_Cuffs]

I don't mind a debate or two about knowledge, as a matter of fact, I adore them. But to have never read a single book on the subject, and to sit there and argue with me based on "common sense", when you don't have a fucking clue what you are talking about, and I am a certifiable expert fucking pisses me off!! Get a working basic knowledge of the subject, then let's talk. Ok? Or not. Not, actually. I think I would pass at this point...

I chalked it up to stress due to the upcoming holiday!
Most are due to spend time with family, which is supposed to be a good thing, but in truth I believe it stresses us out... Not just seeing them, but the change outside of routine as well.
Could that be it?

 

[MeekMe]

Seems I double posted. (( _ _ ))..zzzZZ I could really go for more sleep.

 

[Collar_N_Cuffs]

Nothing to do with the holiday. Though, I was a wreck after Mother's Day. I drove back home to see both Mister's family and mine. His family isn't so bad, but I think it'll be a long period of time before I see mine.

People get together for Memorial Day? (･_･;

In all honesty my family stopped celebrating things like birthdays when I was a kid, so I think we did things different from the average American family.

In that case, self medicate

My hair parts in the middle like Moses is about to cross it. I really, really hate it today.

Bad hair days, no fun

My hair always parted down the middle. The good news, it can be trained! ^_^ It takes time, but eventually you can move your part around for other styles. After showers use a wide toothed comb (don't brush wet hair) to part it where you want it, let it dry that way. It may to a few times for it to actually stay put, but a little hair product to help it stay can do the trick. Also, if you can wear your hair up, try putting a different part in and then securing the style.

My hair is on autopilot and after washing will part down the middle. I just keep moving it. I should probably note that I have fine, thin hair so it tends to hold crimps and kinks on it's own, so I have to wash and style in the morning otherwise you can tell exactly how I was sleeping the night before. ( -_-; )

( -_-; )

Parting my hair where I want it to part when it's still wet is pretty much the only way it'll happen. Even then problem becomes if I want to put my hair up: then it parts where I want it to part AND in the middle. The only way I can get the middle part to go away is teasing, so far I haven't found a single product that would have been strong enough to keep my hair in check and not make it look and feel icky at the same time.

On top of that I have a relatively dark hair for someone with my whiter than white skin tone. That compared with a crazy strong cowlick (is that what the twisty swirly things are called ) that I have and the middle part, with a bit of luck I look bald. On top of that I have hair that refuses to be styled. It can't be curled or blowdried, because it just will not hold. The only way for me to have curls/waves that last longer than 15 minutes is to braid or roll it into a sock bun when it's still wet.

I think I'll just have to learn to love the part down the middle. It'd make my life so much happier.

^_^ I wish I had hair that would fall naturally in place that couldn't hold a curl. I understand the bald look (though I think it's actually a bald spot and not just a weird part) situation. From what I've read, healthy hair doesn't hold unnatural styles very well. Perhaps you have really healthy hair?

Again, hair has to continuously be parted a particular way to make it do what you want. When I first cut bangs (I had a brilliant idea to cover my forehead with a straight across fringe) they separated down the middle comically. I looked pretty silly. After many, many days of brushing and mouse and hair drying them into place, they finally stopped parting dramatically. They still part, but it's less noticeable.

Then again, loving what you have is probably the healthier thing to do. I'm slowly coming to terms with "My hair will always do what it wants and I'll never have super model hair commercial hair."

Today the battle was joined in earnest

I have written how last year my husband caught me with an old BF and how insane things became.
Things have just started to smooth over my husband starting to gain weight after a hard winter of chemo, radiation and bone Marrow transplant.
Then his father starts a war with him, this morning. After the big race I was invited to a dinner, I was just going to show up with my husband at his fathers home because it was outside. His brother was going to be there as well as his sister. I thought it was a family thing. There was a developing problem for race day, The weather report is for rain after the race. My father in law tried to get a outside shelter but everything is already booked so he asked if he could use our covered porch and grill, said we wont have to transport a grill that way any how. I said of course. Then told my husband. He said it was ok. Then his father called back and said we had to figure out how to get my husband out of the house for 6 or 7 hours that afternoon, I asked why. He said he is not invited, I said I already told him.
All I heard was a click, 45 minutes later his mother and father pulled in, his mother asked what the emergency was. as his father roared through the door. He told my husband that he had to be somewhere else race day after noon. My husband was a little confused. said aren't you coming over to a dinner on the porch. His father said yes but you are not invited, after last year you need to learn what those words mean.
My husband started laughing, said my house, my food , my grill I am staying.
At that point his mother told me we were going into the other room, his father said you are acting like a child, its my ball if I don't get to play neither do you, Is that the actions of a man, my husband was a little mean, he said and you call your actions manly, his father said I have guests coming that would rather they did not have you here. My husband said I really don't care what they want.
For that matter I don't care what you want. His father was in the phone book looking for the number for his psyce counselor my husband picked the phone up and dialed the number and handed it to his dad. His father explained the problem he was having with my husband and how one of the guests got hurt last year by my husband when he threw him over the rail of the porch face first into the drive. and how the man was coming and did not want my husband around.
She told him that there was nothing she could really do, its your sons home,
My father in law said he is being obstinate about not being there cant you put him back in the center, She said no, he got just the exact same answer from the metro police and sheriffs office. Recommend Beer or other stronger drinks not be served.
My husband said me and my wife will be right here, his mother walked out with me in tow, asked what was going to happen. His father said my jerk son does not know when he is not wanted around. My husband said ok I will lock up the house and we will go to dinner and a movie, this next part was a shock to both me and my mother in law, what don you mean we, my husband said me and my wife, my father in law said your wife is invited, you are not. My husband just smiled and said that was not going to happen, husbands mother said after what happened last year you want to press things again.
His father said that's the only way he will learn what it is to be a man, my husband spoke up, well this man says have fun eating in your house or the rain. Because my wife will be with me all day. My porch will have me on it, And there will be a sign placed saying only my brother and sister are welcome he said if you want to come to mom you are welcome . Because anyone else remains in the street.
Does any one here think my husband is being petty and childish, he wont agree to any vote here but I hope to show how many think he is outside the bounds of civility?
His mother is very happy my husband is sticking to his guns, I am just scared again.

As a curly/frizzy haired freak of nature, this is pretty much my mantra.


P/O'd: I know it's the same old story, but people really need to stfu about things they don't actually know anything about. And also, every unegalitarian -ism in the world needs to stfu -_-

Its his (well the both of yours) home, how dare his father come over and demand he leave? That's just not right. I would have locked up the house and left with my husband in that situation. If the father wanted an exclusive party, he should have hosted it at his place or a restaurant.

Without having read last year's story, I take it you and hubby are still married and you are okay with that.
If that's true, I have to ask these rhetorical questions;

WHO's house is it????
His father's?
No?
Then his daddy doesn't get to make the rules, and your husband can call the police to have him removed from his (and yours) private property.

If it's so important to daddy to exclude his son from the festivities, for crissake, why did he plan them at your house?

I suggest that you and your mother in law do some quick reshuffling, move the party to some other venue.

Also, what do YOU want? Or does that not matter?

Edited to add; It's real probable that your husband needs to grow the fuck up, almost everyone does. But daddy isn't any shining example.

Nope, I think your father in law is being petty and childish.
Besides that, I find your idea of showing him what some random strangers online think as means to make him change his mind rather appalling.
