Vacation time! Here's Hazel and Aggie napping together in the sun room. They're bonded sisters.
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.
I don’t wanna share too much information, as it’s fairly identifiable, but I’m working for a local wedding venue today! It’s run by this sweet older couple; I’m their only employee, they pay me pretty well ($21/hr and I’ve gotten a $3 raise every year I’ve worked here), and they basically treat me like family.
Formally, I am an “Event Associate“ but they’ve affectionately titled me as “Event: everything we don’t wanna do”. My primary job is to take a wedding plan, and actually make it into reality, we have a custom floor plan every wedding with a number of antique furniture and decoration choices. So effectively this is a labor job, but they let me have as many breaks as I want and they make me sandwiches sometimes.
My favorite part is at the end of the night where there’s a bunch of leftover wedding food that I get to take home for free!
I managed to make salsa today, all from tomatoes grown in the garden. I bought store tomatoes in case I didn't have enough, but the tomatoes had so little seeds inside there was enough flesh by a lot.
Those cats are very very cute. The kitten has been a right terror over here, run run run run FLING FLING she goes lately.
I love them 😍
Is there a comm on lemmy that's kind of like Evil Autism on that other site? I enjoy shit posting and I also think weaponizing my autism is hilarious but none of the comms I know of seem like the right place for that.
Not that I am aware of.
I bought duck eggs at the farm stand
They are beautiful. Very cute.
Enjoying battlefield 1 whole day
