Was I really drunk last night?
I just clicked "my posts" and there's more than my usual quota of incoherent rants.

4. I wonder if there's something going on more than finances
I am somewhere within the Autistic Spectrum (probably Aspergers) and this occasionally has wierd side effects. One of them is obsessions. One of those is money - borne out in stinginess.

Ank finally got pissed off about:


  • broken and cracked dishes, bowls, plates
  • stained, ripped and no-longer-absorbent towels
  • a cupboard full of mis-matched glasses, no two alike
  • a closet full of coffee cups, no two alike, some cracked
  • stained, mismatched placemats
  • old, torn and stained cushions on the couch
  • goo on the kitchen table


So he went out and bought matching, tasteful and inexpensive:


  • towels, washcloths, hand towels
  • cups, plates, bowls
  • glasses
  • placemats
  • cushions


So I blew a temper tantrum over what I considered a waste of money. I don't have a problem with mis-matched stuff.

Over the last few months we've also gotten:


  • new bedding (replaced .... :scared:)
  • new bedroom curtains (replaced basically a bedsheet)
  • new couch/futon (replaced ripped, torn, bulky, uncomfortable couch)
  • new chair for him (ergonomic for his bad back)


Do you see the pattern?

He's trying to turn our apartment from a hovel into a home.

My problem - I like hovels.

5. Misunderstood what you said
It wouldn't have been pretty anyway. By that time I was having trouble typing three-letter words, never mind taking part in a chat.

6. Yep and when you barfed
You turned the lounge into this giant barf-fest,
like what happened in "Stand By Me".

:puke:
