Hey, it’s the end of April and therefore the end of Autism Acceptance Month (or Autism Blogging Month, in my case). I had fun, though I didn’t get to everything I had planned to discuss. I really didn’t think that “favorite characters” thing was going to take so many posts, I originally planned to do… Read More Autism Acceptance Every Day
Note: This is not a review. I can’t quite process this movie enough to give a general review. After two viewings, I still can’t decide if I even like it or not. The things that hurt are too strong to let me fairly judge the better parts. So all I’m going to do here is… Read More Rain Man
