"I swear I've seen you somewhere before"
I'm horrible with names and faces. It may be related to Asperger's syndrome or just ADD.

I often am confronted with people who claim to have met me somewhere but don't know where. It happened again the other night, with a bingo caller. I claim to live a sheltered existence, but Ahknaten pointed out that for a variety of reasons, I'm fairly well known in town due to my involvement in:


  • the rock music business (bands, stores, venues)
  • the classical music business (choirs, bands, other stores, venues)
  • the church music business (churches, more stores)
  • music education (former students, former teachers, audience)
  • the police beat (volunteer work, bylaw enforcement, security checks)
  • Federal politics (volunteer work, campaigning, LGBT issues, camera opportunities, activism)
  • City politics (volunteer work, campaigning, LGBT issues, camera opportunities)
  • Condo politics (former board member)
  • Kids' sports (two different leagues)
  • Bingo and other volunteerism
  • LGBT issues (activism, volunteerism, various clubs and activites)
  • clubbing


Jaysus, when do I sleep?

If he wants to investigate the matter further, my first questions is probably going to end up being "was I wearing clothes at the time?".

Oh, dear.

2. You have Aspergers too
:) so do I!
btw I had that exact feeling and I know I did. When I went to the rally this weekend, I met some DUers and I swore I had seen veganwitch before, then it hit me actually it had for a while that I had seen her the Tuesday I met Kucinich.
