Post #176 - January - not the Pilot song

So, it's January 2021 and the UK is yet again under Covid-19 lockdown for about the umpteenth time.  Is it annoying because Master Logic isn't at school - yes; am I getting bored - yes; is there anything which can be done about it - no.  Adjusting to what everyone is calling The New Normal isn't quite as bad for us Aspies when you think about it.  

The broadband is playing up because it's overloaded - sigh!  Even Virgin Media cable is creaking.  

Post #165 - Five Years Post Diagnosis

Doesn't time fly when you're having fun? No? Well, not at this particular COVID-19 juncture I guess?

Five years on the spectrum. Officially that is because I was born autistic. I still wish that my wider family (mother and brother) would try and understand me and my condition, but I'd be better off shooting for the moon.

Post #164 - Coronavirus/Covid-19 and Isolation

It's now the end of March 2020 and I'm writing this from the comfort of self-isolation, as mandated by the UK Government.  Will we all be dead soon?  If so, will this blog be lifted from the Internet of the future and used as a tool for learning about life in the late twentieth and early twenty-first century?  Probably not, but I'll keep writing anyway.

Self-isolating for Aspies is pretty standard behaviour anyway - a veritable life choice if I'm honest.  I find it difficult to mix in large group and as for remaining two metres away from the next person - bring it on - London's far too bloody crowded anyway.  I'm totally used to communicating remotely and find it much easier, although replying to my mate's long-winded emails because she refuses to buy a smartphone is bloody annoying I must admit.  Let's face it, emails are formal these days - the equivalent of receiving an old style written epistle - give me a WhatsApp message any day.
