Wellllllllllllllllllll.

I saw an accident today, well not exactly.  I heard the accident and saw the cars immediately afterwards.  I gave my name and phone number to the car that was hit.

As I was going about my running around, I had a fictional conversation with the insurance companies.

You saw the accident?  Well, no.  But I heard it and my eyes immediately went to to sound.

So you didn't see the accident?  Listen, I was one car back from the intersection.  One car was turning left on a green light and the other car ran a red light.

How could see this if you were one car back from the intersection?  Because I go through that intersection about 20 to 25 times a week.  I have autistim and part of my autism is that I'm fascinated with signal lights changing colors.  So, I was leaning forward to watch the light and I saw that it was red when the lady went through it.

What's so good?  I never realized that I was fascinated with signal lights before.

My book came.  I had been looking for The Tightwad Gazette Vol. 2 for at least 10 years in the thrift stores.  No where to be found.  I finally gave up and ordered it on line for $1 and postage.  It came today.  Relief and happiness.

Went to the doc to pick up some meds, and discuss the results of the MRI scan I had done on my knee.

Apparently there is no structural damage at all, which is good to know.  I hated the idea of possibly needing surgical treatment to fix it, the first op I had on it was hardly a success. But the doc is of the opinion that my knee issues can be sorted by intensive physiotherapy.

Today I finished clearing out my email inbox.  Over 450 messages were either deleted or stored in the appropriate folder.  My goal for next year is to go through the folders and weed them out.

  I needed just one more quarter in order to do laundry, and I found it behind a couch cushion.  :thumbup:

Yes.  It was taking too long to load my inbox.  So, a winter cleaning was in order.

I got a percentile rank of 80.5 on the STAT test (received the results just a few minutes ago). I'm the happiest man alive now.

  Congratulations!  :thumbup:  What is the STAT test, and what do your results entitle you to?

Thanks, guys. STAT test in Australia is sort of like an entry test into some universities for adults who've been out of school for quite a while. The one I did (two months ago) was a multiple choice test of 70 questions that test how well you can read what's provided to you and answer the questions based on the given texts. Sort of like an IQ test but different in that it tests for reading comprehension and analysis skills (I think).

Also, just realized it would've gone higher had I had a better vocabulary (only 47.3 percentile rank in Verbal). But overall, this should be more than enough to get me into a course like Psychology.
