Aww thanks. The interruptions are pretty rough, but I had a spell of calm today, so that's nice.
I'm sorry, but this is also a hilarious turn of phrase. It's one of my better wordses and I'm glad you're enjoying it. :p
sometimes it feels like my social skills and sensory oversentitivities are correlated. The better I become at faking eye contact, the more I'm incapable of dealing with air conditioning! This sounds familiar! I only have so much energy and so much attention to go around, and social competence takes more out of me than most people, as does tuning out sensory input. Add adult responsibilities (and fun "responsibilities", i.e. fandom/writing) and at a certain point, something's gotta give. I've also bailed on events that are just too much/too noisy -- better to be a "party pooper" than to get overwhelmed and shout at someone or start crying or something. >.>
