I am currently reading this book called "Look me in the eye", by a man who grew up with parents who were seriously mentally ill, he himself has Aspergers Syndrome. His brother has written a book also, (as well as several blogs) and it was made into a big hollywood movie a few years ago, called "Running with Scissors".

But I regress, this is about living with Aspergers, from someone's point who is the one diagnosed with it, and seeing this world through Aspie eyes is very interesting. Having lived with Aspie peeps, and dealt with them on a very personal level, this book still brings new aspects and nuances to life both as an NT and Aspie. Though, I highly doubt that too many Aspies run into all the crazy situations that this guy does.... Hey, he went on tour with Kiss and Pink Floyd... among other things!!! He does very well with expressing how his highly brilliant mind works, and I enjoy the many funny stories and situations he finds himself in. Though it's heartbreaking to hear about his growing up with two parents who are off their rockers, each in their own way...

Anywho, good book. Well written and easy to follow. And very VERY interesting, I think!

For the record, I also HIGHLY RECOMMEND the movie "Adam". It is beautiful, moving, enlightening, worth every penny. Unfortunately it was only given a limited release, but these days, thanks to technology, hopefully we have it on DVD within a few short months....
For those who are into stats though, for a film that was only released to 4 theaters, and still managed to pull a gross of $96,888 over 5 days, that is quite an achievement!!! And that is how good this movie is!
