Robin Hood on Getting Caught Up

I'm not sure if this is an executive dysfunction thing or hyperfocus thing or what, maybe a pairing, but, I know a lot of us get "stuck" on small tasks that are *part of* a larger task and then we never actually finish the main task. Like, I know I was supposed to clean my room, but when I went to put my box of colored pencils away I realized they weren't all sharp, so I sharpened them, and then I arranged them in the box by color so they're easier to find... and then it was midnight somehow???

Belle on Autism Meals

Me lately!! I will find annnnny excuse to get out of eating breakfast at home so I can go to my drive through and start my day "right." I can't afford this, financially or physically. I'm actually tired of the sandwich I get and you knowwww I'm not about to mix things up by getting a new sandwich. Yet there I am. Every morning. No reason except I'm stuck on that food right now. Sigh.

(Image: Belle taking a sip off her spoon, but looking deeply troubled with furrowed brow and downcast eyes, like she is thinking about something else entirely.

Robin Hood on Recovery

I have felt like this for the past couple months, all tied up in an entirely excessive amount of rope so I couldn't move (metaphorically speaking). Recovery was NOT this instantaneous for me but I thought the meme was a good fit for other situations so here it is. It's good to be back.

(Image: Robin Hood pushing a whole lot of ropes that were previously tying him up off of him; he is looking at them as they fall and smiling.

Cinderella on Recovering

I... missed you all a whole lot. I think I'm back for good now. Thanks so much for hanging around while I put myself back together!!

(Image: Cinderella tip-toeing through the hallway, looking concerned, her arms held in the air dramatically.

Jafar and Iago on Mutual Echolalia

Echolalia is kind of like having a song stuck in your head, but it could be a line from a movie or a phrase or even a word (I meow a lot). Mutual echolalia is when you both have a song stuck in your head for days, to the point where you use it to find each other as if you're playing Marco Polo, and then you finally manage to get it unstuck... just for the other person to start it up again.

(Text: mutual echolalia is all fun and games...

Image: close up of Jafar's face glaring at Iago, who is cowering and making a sheepish apologetic face on his shoulder. In the movie, Iago was just dancing to Prince Ali's entrance number.

I really like this gif because Stitch does that little squinty thing that animals do when they’re really happy and relaxed and you can tell that he’s having such a superb time playing that little ukulele

The King and Grand Duke (Cinderella) on Special Interests

You know how it goes. It's late Friday night. You tell yourself, and your friend, that you'll just watch ONE episode before going to bed. The next thing you know, it's Tuesday.

(((Image: the king is leaning over the edge if a stone balcony eagerly, holding a monocle to his eye so he can see better and and gazing through it with a wide smile and attentive expression. He is partly supporting, partly squishing the grand duke against the wall; the duke's eyes are closed and his mouth is open, as if he is yawning or asleep.

Text: them: it's 3 AM, I don't care if this show is your special interest, I'm going to sleep

Me: but season four is the best one, look!!))

Dixie on Face Blindness

I do this way too often. I know I've posted a few memes on this topic. It keeps happening.

Image: Dixie (Fox and the Hound II) on a couch staring intensely towards the viewer as if she's trying to figure something out))

I had to have faith in my dream. No one was going to hand it to me. It was up to me to reach for that dream. Grab it tight and make it come true. Coco (2017) Dir. Lee Unkrich

Fantasia Ballerinas on Hand Flapping

((Image: the hippo and crocodile (alligator??) from Fantasia mid-dance. Both are standing with their arms stretched to the ceiling and their fingers splayed and mouths wide open.

Text: when you handflap in excitement which causes someone else to handflap in excitement and you both end up flapping around happily ignoring everyone else))
