Sorry I Was Napping

That is a lot of belts

That is a big fence. How do I know which of the fence posts not to reblog?

What the heck is this?!  Someone put up a fence around the Beach City Lighthouse!  And the only reason for anyone to put up a fence is if they’ve got SOMETHING TO HIDE!!!  Or if they have a dog.  Or a pool.  Or if the homeowners association in their neighborhood requires it according to their by-laws.

Whoever this mysterious fence mason is, they were actually doing me a favor.  That lighthouse indeed holds many secrets… secrets of my OWN!!!

…I’ve said too much, please don’t reblog this post.

Is time.

K I'm up. What were we doing?

The way most autism literature describes "literal interpretation" is often not at all similar to how I experience it. Teenage me even thought I couldn't be autistic because I've always been able to learn metaphors easily.

In fact, I love wordplay of all kinds. Teenage me was fascinated to learn all the types of figurative language there are in poetry and literature.

But paperwork and questionnaires are hard, because there's so much they don't state clearly. Or they don't leave room for enough nuance.

"List all the jobs you've had, with start and end dates." What if I don't remember the exact day or month? Is the year enough?

"Have you been suffering from blurred vision?" Well, if I take off my glasses the whole world is blurred, but I'm fairly sure that's not what the intake form at the optometrist is asking.

Or the infamous (and infuriatingly stereotypical) "Would you rather go to a library or a party?" What sort of party? Where? Who's there? I work at a library. Am I currently at the library for work or pleasure? Does it have a good collection?

It's not common figures of speech that confound me. It's ambiguity, in situations that aren't supposed to be ambiguous.

I'm being ~notable~

I love being a nobody on here because I could make one of those ‘if this gets ‘x’ amount of notes I’ll go and actually work on my original works’ and it wouldn’t get near the goal

~Hit me with your best shot~
