Note to self: while staying at Saratoga Springs Resort at DW may save vacation points, it is far, far away and takes forever to get to and from. It's a bit like waiting for a bus to Brigadoon.

On a totally other note. Has anyone had experience with someone in their life who exhibits adult Asperger Syndrome?
It seems someone very close to me may be afflicted and I have no clue how to respond.

And now I'm ear-wormed with the high school production we did of Brigadoon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh my god - this is horrible! NRA's Secret Graphic Novel Revealed!
Pro-gun Democrats did better in the midterms than probably any other class of politician, but the National Rifle Association is not in the business of reflecting moderate political reality. The NRA lives off memberships, and the standard card-carrying member has two enemies: Democrats and … deer, most likely.
But even loyalists go soft, as the GOP learned last month, and you need some Grade A propaganda to get people riled up again. Let no one accuse the NRA of shirking its duty. Freedom In Peril: Guarding the 2nd Amendment in the 21st Century, is a spectacularly beautiful graphic novel. Here, for example, is one of the biggest threats to the white suburban hunter: dirty hippies and their evil sidekicks: the dynamite-carrying owl, sinister pig, angry Wall Street bull, dire wolf, terror chicken and Land Lobster
...
Say, speaking of minorities, shouldn’t we especially be worried about the Illegal Alien Gangs who also work with Soros and Katie Couric to take away our precious 2nd Amendment freedoms? Yes, yes we should:
Scary Fact: Most Negroes are, in truth, illegal aliens who work with the Super Asian-Mexican-Black Gang, known as the 18th Street Loco Al Qaeda Kommu-Nizzle Boyz.
The graphics are so over the top....

Did this person tell you they're an Aspie, or do others suspect it?
I'm kind of borderline Aspie myself.

Holy mackeral! I just realized I'm wearing two unrelated shoes.
This is what happens when you have half an hour to get four people out of the door by 7:30.
At least they're both black dress shoes.

She is a seamstress and embroiderer and crocheter....so I'm thinking of hitting the craft store to see what sparks.
Suzi, I seem to remember Ginger linking to some really good scissors for a seamstress.
I seem to remember Germans eating marzipan and a fruit pastry called schtollen (I think) on Christmas Eve. Even if she's a picky eater, she might appreciate the tradition

Trust my rage
I need last minute prezzie advice
Would she enjoy music of some sort? It's small and easy to pack, but I guess it could be hard to find something she'd like if you don't know her taste that well.
ION, my parents are finally on their way here. Joe and my bro went to pick them up at the airport. SIL and I are just chilling. SO mice to have family around.
