I am currently sitting in front of my computer, which is in my kitchen, waiting for something to finish cooking in my microwave.
As I will be eating shortly, one might well wonder why I chose to sign in, or why I feel compelled to share this uninteresting news with you.
Well, I did not know that within 5 minutes of me signing in, my son was going to ask if I fancied something to eat, which I do... because I'm hungry. So, now I'm sitting here thinking, "Don't get too involved with the forum discussions, or at least not until after I've eaten."
"That's all well and good", you might think, "but why are you telling us all this?"
Um, I have no idea. None whatsoever.

Whilst Sparkly knows she is without a doubt completely bonkers, or at least she was when she originally created this post (and hopes she still is now and always will be), Sparkly is inclined to think she might not be alone in being bonkers, considering some of the contributions made to this discussion.
I wasn't autistic until I entered this thread...
Erm, is that a good thing or a bad thing?
Good, but confusing.
I am of the same generation hampered massively by this ridiculous idea. I only overcame it a year or so ago with my Biblical Greek classes. I ended up having personal tuition and was able to really discuss what i got or didn't get about grammar. My teacher was very patient and we ended up having really interesting discussions about aspect theory and other such things which I never would have expected to get. It was brilliant. I also use my Greek for religious study, reading and exegesis, though in my classes I did also translate into Greek, which does help.
Tenses used to make me tense but now i find them fun!
