Welcome to my blog. I write about autism, running, my family, and various other random aspects of life that fascinate or mystify me.
Just for fun, here are five random facts about me:
1. When I finished high school, my goal was to do psychology research. I accidentally became a computer programmer instead. I morphed from programming into I.T. project management, but I had too much disdain for corporate politics to be really good at it. Now I am self-employed as a writer. I love the work but my boss never gives me time off.
2. I absolutely detest olives. Once, when I was in my early teens, an aunt gave me an olive and told me it was a grape. I had trust issues for a while after that.
3. I’m afraid of spiders, ladders and the Bloor Viaduct.
4. Sometimes, on slow days, I wonder how they know that all snowflakes are unique. Does someone sit there and examine them all?
5. I’m left-handed. This is apparently a trait I share with 85% of polar bears (I’d love to have dinner with the guy who did that research – imagine the questions I could ask).
Sometimes, when I write my blogs, I actually do make sense.
There are ways and means for you to connect with me outside of this blog. You can follow me on Twitter or get updates on my Facebook page. You can also visit my website or send me an email.
