Usefulness is the key
‘Day Sixteen’
Portsmouth
25th August 2013
Still in a blur
Nearing end of short break and a very difficult month now. Although I am still not well – I recognise this now so will be easy on myself – I can see that maybe August is leaving a different shape than when it first appeared – one more week to test the theory.
Some emails fly this weekend – I play with patterns and take time to think about my synaesthesia
I ask OH if numbers are different sizes to their value and have personality – I am stared at – no – you can say the oddest things and expect to get away with it – comes the polite version of her reply
So there we go what I always thought as of as natural experience is another ‘variation’ of my view of the world – Number personification synaesthesia as well as object personification – never questioned it – some are better friendlier than others – maybe that’s why I can only add subtract and multiply – not well in my head as they have connotations outside of their remit
Its made me think – the found objects I use for working with or the stones I collect as friends etc – the imbued personality I place over an objects isn’t ‘reading’ their actual personality but my minds eye view superimposed? Its not a psychic ability but I know it feels more realistic than ‘reading’ people? I am unable to read people

aspergers + synaesthesia
More self directed research needed – this is the next avenue of my neuroscience investigation – internet open – questions ready
Cast ashore
I am awakened
From deaths sleep
By single kiss
Her lips leave mine
Linger Unfurled
With bitter mortal words
Leaving me no rest
