Rainy, cool, humid day today - gross. With on and off rain promised all weekend. Think I'll close the pool today. It isn't supposed to get out of the 70s (21.1C) in the entire 10 day, getting as low as 51 (10.56C) at one point! So it won't heat up enough to go back in anyway, so I'll save the electricity running the pump. Sad, really. Hardly got in at all this summer, esp. after I was told to stay out for 3 weeks due to the #CatBite. I'm the only regular user.
So I decided to save a few bucks and go with the Fitbit Inspire 3 instead of the Charge 5. It's only US$20 cheaper, but hey, it's something. The only big difference is no GPS in the Inspire but I never go anywhere without my phone so no big loss there. And @jeanettepizzurro said it was good enough for her, so that means it is good enough for me! Going to pick it up today. I feel so naked without it on my wrist! And does exercise really count if you don't measure it?

#introduction post? Hi, I'm Dan.
I don't generally do social media. And yet here I am. Trying out this Fedi thing,
excited to have a space where I can just be myself.
I'm recently self diagnosed #ActuallyAutistic, #PDA, #Aphantasia, #Anauralia & officially #ADHD (39yo, better late than never!)
It's been so enlightening to finally start learning and embracing who I really am.
Meeting other autistic people has been amazing and is helping me feel less alone.
Went to the hospital today for neurological testing. I saw only four other patients who were wearing a mask and no practitioners or staff. I honestly don't understand.

I've never been treated like I was an imposition before at at medical facility - at check in, by the assistant, by the doctor. I don't know if it was the mask. My mind is spinning.

I have some very exciting writing news to share. I have sold a novella.
No Sympathy, my urban fantasy about sympathetic magic and ego, will be published by Android Press. Delighted to be working with such a cool indie publisher, and I know they're a fantastic fit for the work.
