A bicycle thief was charmed mid-robbery by a golden retriever. He gave the pup belly rubs and even said "I love you" before fleeing. The golden significantly misunderstood the assignment, but we're giving them a 14/10 for at least delaying the situation
Toward end of trip to nature reserve I thought
‘This is first time I’ve not seen a new thing’ 🤔
But just then, a plain bird was nearby & turned out to be a Spotted Flycatcher, a first for me!
I only know it’s that because of bird ID app you recommended @SusanAUTOBO 😄🤩
“Easy as pie” said colleague in a team meeting
I asked why a pie is easy
Lots of amusing discussion and guesses followed 😂
We did eventually get back onto work topics, but that was a fun start 😁
‘One hour’ ADHD annual appointment…
5 minutes - tells me about the place & what happens
(to reduce autism anxiety)
5 minutes - take my weight & ask a few adhd questions
That was it 🤷♀️
#ADHD
60 minute appointment about adhd next week 🫤
What goes on in the 60 mins? 🤷♀️
My guess…
Dr: how’s things going?
me: fine thanks
Dr: tell me more
me: I am doing fine thank you
…another 59 mins of this
Tears were in my eyes just now when I re-watched Extraordinary Attorney Woo
“Only 80 years ago, having autism meant being unworthy of life”
…because it reminded me that it happened in this country only 3 years ago 😢

Hugs with people you don’t know well:
> often fairly quick
> maybe light touch
> or maybe a ‘bear hug’
All fine, if I’m happy for a hug in that moment
But yesterday I had a strange hug…
1/2
@aheeleyRIBA I tried to pull away a couple times, but she really wanted that hug!!
Probably won’t see her for another year, so guess at least next time I’ll be prepared that it might happen again 🫤
