    Went on a nature walk last week. Came home with one pocket of small smooth stones and another pocket full of black crow feathers.

    No one else appreciated it. More for me then.

    I don’t trust anyone without at least one diagnosed or likely mental or emotional disorder. In a world like this, you would have to be crazy to be sane!

    Animals. I’ve seen thousands and thousands of cows in my life. Yet when I drive by a field of cows I’m still like “Cows!”

    When my wife and I are driving (anywhere) and we see a dog we excitedly point “DOG!” and then talk about how cute / good the dog looks. Or if I’m on my own I’ll come back and say “I saw a dog when I was driving” and a similar conversation. I thought everyone did this.

    I don’t think I have autism, but my story to relate to this: I was in downtown Houston once with some friends and I told them about this spot nearby where there’s a big red button that you can push. It was only a couple of blocks away, and no one was interested. It’s a big red button! You push it and it does something! Am I the only one with a sense of adventure?!

    Getting excited at all is rather rare for me. Usually training sessions get me slightly exited. Maybe that classifies as a special interest as well by now.

    Loads of things especially if its colourful, textured, shiny etc

    But, mostly bugs, plants, wood, rocks, patterns, wool (that really nice multi dyed stuff), art materials and paint

    The list is endless…
