Something that's been in my routine for decades has been to think of the part of my mind that tries to solve problems while I'm asleep as a daemon or agent. I would call it a "TSR" (Terminate and Stay Resident program), a throwback to DOS computing. This morning, I woke up with a solution to a systems problem and followed up with it after I made some green tea. I do take it for granted, and I do, at times, even try to instruct it before going to bed. Sound familiar to anyone? #autism #asd ?

Something that pushed the idea forward to be evaluated was last year when I was trying to think of my favorite three characters from TV or film. I couldn't think of three, but Data is sort of a missing link. #autism
