It's Taco Tuesday!

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.

Man. I miss Taco Time. Loved their Crisp Beef Burritos with a side of Mexifries Deluxe. Don't get me started on their yummy sauce.

Anyway...

Trying to get my sleeping schedule back on track... got stuck in a depressing loop of being awake at night and sleeping during the day.

It was honestly nice, but nothing is open at night so even if I wanted to leave the house, there's nothing drawing me out.

Also, trying to fit back into society that wants me working ASAP to kick me off of paying me disability...
