The always-delightful Penelope Trunk is writing a series this week. I think it’s going to be about how to deal with work when one has Asperger syndrome oneself.
I showed the first article to my beloved.

“Yes, I’ll get to it. It’s in my blog reader.”
“You follow Penelope Trunk?”
“Of course. She’s the idealized version of you.”
Interesting. That was a nice thing for him to say, right?
I believe it was yes, and I speak from experience since I’m Aspie myself ;).

Michel: Oh, being an Aspie is great. But Penelope is… special. I’m not sure that being weird like Penelope only broken is really where I want to be. But I’ll say it is.
ina: Yes, much better! Weird like Penelope only fixed. Yes, that’s it!
