I'm having my third day of lying in bed doing absolutely nothing watching sunny with occasional showers and the lemon tree outside the window and it's most of what I can deal with.
I have done a lot of nothing today trying to calm my overwhelm. It's working and I feel a lot more calm than I did last night. Life is basically hard work, managing existence, isn't it?
I am so exhausted from a day at work then an evening keeping my 8 year old daughter company in the face of my 12 year old son's gang of 4 friends he has over. It would be a lot for an NT.
I kinda wanna cry and I have a few more days before I can collapse.
I just watched episode 4 of Austin the autistic comedy show from Australian ABC. It featured Billie Piper because he was obsessed with her and went on a Billie Piper tour in London and in 1999 I refused to leave a free festival in Sheffield when everyone else wanted to because Billie Piper was performing Honey to the bee.
Do allistic people really need constant interaction with others? In person? It sounds horrific. I lived with other people for years. Often they want interaction. That's just brutal for the autistic mind isn't it? #Autism#autistic#neurodiverse#lgbtqi#ActuallyAutistic
#AmWriting a hitherto uncomposed #bisexual, #polyamorous#folktale collected in 1870, in Valle, Aust Agder, in southern #Norway. Nominally AT550 (the golden bird), though the only birds are two crow witches.
This folktale even escaped the attention of Oddbjørg Høgset, the editor of Erotiske folkeeventyr (which forms the foundation of my book from 2017, Erotic Folktales from Norway), because the record lives in a letter to Peter Christen Asbjørnsen, rather than in the folktale notebooks.
“When they were able to speak together, the king’s son told her how everything at come to pass. Now Ingebjørg felt regret for what she had believed of her beloved, and she knew not what to do. She was a married man, yet she did not want to lose her first love.”
