The Squirrelly and ASD: Fantastic entry from Defective Yeti about his son's recent diagnosis of ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder).
[defective Yeti eats way too much horseradish] And as the heat continued to grow, I began to seriously wonder: can I die from this? Can this become so overwhelming that my body goes into shock and I just slump sidewise and perish from the sheer enormity of the sensation?
I've been thinking about this story a lot lately, because I have begun to wonder the same thing about my love for The Squirrelly.
Thanks for this. It also made me tear up quite a bit actually. This, combined with the "I still Think of You, Jim Henson" have had me on the verge of tears all day. *sniff*
