Recalibration

Look, it's a poll! About emotional crap. This is, of course, triggered by things which have happened recently, and, to a lesser degree, by things which have happened often over the last couple of years, and to a still lesser degree, by things I've been working on since forever. But it's been a while I've done any surveying like this.

These are all questions about how others see me and my attempts to communicate my emotions. I can't make polls anonymous, or I would. I hope you'll answer honestly despite that. No one who reads this journal is involved in the most recent thing which prompted this survey, so this isn't a SEKRIT MESSAGE to anybody.

also, I'd read Temple Grandin's books Animals in Translation and The Unwritten Rules of Social Relationships. It may well apply to you (and if that seems derogatory, you _really_ need to read the books, since I'm sure you're rubbing shoulders with people whom these books describe even if you're not one of them).

Temple Grandin is awesome! I've read some of her stuff, but not The Unwritten Rules of Social Relationships - I probably should get to that one, too. That said, I have, for the record, been evaluated and do not test anywhere on the asbergers/autism spectrum. I am indeed neurally atypical! But not in that way.
