A wee mite of autism parenting humor: we were at the pool the other day @ the end of the evening, watching the lifeguards straighten things up.

"Look," says the spousal unit. "They keep lining the chairs up. Maybe they're autistic!"

We Are Everywhere.

It seemed funny, but maybe just because of the heat--it was so hot that even the gnats were resting, exhausted, and the adults (i.e., fat middle-aged people like me) were going off the diving board because everyone was crazy from the heat.
