You can do this Lexam, just keep it casual. Dont talk about your Japanese Jesus conspiracy theories. Just nice and casual conversation. Ok here we go.

Hi everyone, how is your weather today?

This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.

The weather is cold but not below freezing. This is important because I took the tomato plants outside so they could suffer. I mean, so they can harden up and grow stronger.

I'm tired again, but at least I managed that today. Oh wait! I also have cookie dough in the fridge to bake later. This recipe requires that, it's a sticky dough that you scoop and shape so it has to be firm (so chilled) to achieve that.
