Higher-Functional than Some People I Know In Fandom

Thanks to debgeisler pointing it out, I took an online Asperger's test.

Thank you for filling out this questionnaire.

Your Aspie score: 92 of 200
Your neurotypical (non-autistic) score: 74 of 200
You are more Aspie than neurotypical

This should not be interpreted as making fun of pepole who are diagnosed with Asperger's or Austism. I only took it due to the idea floating around that nearly everyone in SF fandom has Asperger's Syndrome to at least a limited extent.

Awaking from Hibernation

Having completed everything expected of me for now, I fell into bed before 7 PM, maybe earlier -- I lost track of time. I heard bits of the last couple innings of the Giants-Pirates game -- can't blame that loss on Benitez, folks -- and then was completely off to sleep for at least twelve hours. Dreams of work chased me out of bed around 7 AM -- remember that I'm partially running on Eastern Time due to having to be up to work with the Virginia Team so much.

I have very little planned for today other than resting, although I do need to get out and take a walk. I had yet another >200 blood sugar reading yesterday from a typical, not-especially-big breakfast, and it's clearly caused by getting no exercise at all. Even the minor amount of exercise involved in driving to my office is apparently better than eating a bowl of cereal at my home office desk and then sitting there moving nothing but my fingers on the keyboard.

Feeling Better

A lot of sleep and a long shower have had good effects upon me. Contrast this photo, taken about Noon today, with the wreck I was yesterday afternoon.

( He cleans up okay, I guess )

Westercon 60 is holding a picnic this afternoon. As I really should go clean out the PO Box in Sunnyvale, I am considering dropping in for a while, but not too long, as I'm still feeling the fatigue effects of this past couple of weeks, and more rest is called for. I want to be back in "fighting trim" in time for Worldcon, and I have less time than I normally do between Westercon and Worldcon to boot. Besides, I'm leaving for Anaheim on the Friday before the convention starts, because I have some tourism planned, including a day at the Orange Empire Railway Museum on the Sunday pre-con.
