Boredom Does Things

You ever realize boredom will make you do things you kept procrastinating about? (Like this post) 

But don’t tell that to anybody!

We’re here - or rather I am here - to pass the time because no one’s at home at the moment. I really feel my keyboard’s not helping to dissipate the silence in this house....

It’s hot today, it was hot yesterday, it will be hot tomorrow, whatever. Either way it’s uncomfortable to sit in an awkward position in my chair and have my sweat-sticky elbows planted on the desk as I attempt to write an essay about my own lack of creativity on holidays as I keep counting the number of days I have left to sleep till 10 and do everything however the hell I want. I also gotta pee.

I have relieved myself of discomfort and also found sustenance. (it’s just peanuts and a banana, btw.)

Anyways, boredom. It has come to get me. I am really trying hard to write something meaningful. Perhaps, the intensity with which I was occupied since November or even earlier just had an equal and opposite reaction and now I  feel like I am suspended in the air, which is impossible. Or I am more likely attached to my bed with the metal body of my phone brushing my fingertips always while I am living existing in my own head.

I don’t have it in me to write random lines on random topics because I have done that before and it was so embarrassing, I deleted that blog. Don’t ever do that, it will cause you about a hundred regrets and wanting to yeet yourself off of whatever surface you are sitting on or standing. 

See, do something, anything. Look where it got me. Where l kept writing about me not writing anything meaningful, I just ended up creating GOLD relatable content. I don’t mean to brag but - Goddamn. l am smiling. I just took a bite out of my half-eaten banana. 

Summing up, readers, I just got work done. It was nice, except now I will probably go back to square one - on thinking what to do next, or maybe, actually do something next, like putting the banana peel in the trash and the bowl of peanuts in the sink.

Thank you for reading :)

“Checking” ourselves online

In social media and blogging, we have an incredible tool for sharing the needs and wonders of our children with differences. It brings so much understanding and community. It inspires change and acceptance. It's beautiful.

That said, there is a line that can be crossed, and I personally seek not to cross it. More private updates on my son are best left for my personal page, and you will never see a video of him having a meltdown or sharing his potty training details. Some call that "special needs porn" and it's yucky territory. It's not the same as posting an issue to a private online group for advice from other moms who have been there; it's about getting attention for the parent. I am trying hard not to do that by accident. I will never wish him different. I will teach him autistic pride. I will never shut down adult autistic voices, even where I don't 100% agree.

For over a year, I had been an avid follower of a hugely popular page called Finding Cooper's Voice. A few weeks ago, I unfollowed that mom. She posted about how she essentially was so relieved to give her typical son a new typical baby brother, the implication being that her higher needs autistic son, his big brother, was not enough. She lost me there.

We must be advocates, not martyrs. We can be real without leaving a hurtful footprint online. Let's think before we share. May it all have purpose. #neurodiversity #thoughtfulblogging #advocacy
