Kristy,
Wow, I needed that laugh I got by the end of your post. I'll join your superhero crew but with my mental fatigue I'm better for the morning shift around 10.
My sense of humor just started coming back this month and I'm enjoying it.
I hate people deciding when I can go out somewhere (not that I want to go out into the always too loud world) and what I spend also. I don't make the best decisions yet. I was also very independent and it stinks.
I hope I can eventually drive. My eyes and brain aren't friends and my body reacts intensely in the car to sounds and perception, and that's just sitting in the back seat!
Day by day!
Peace, Jace
