My sensory overload moments are more like scream like a baby and get outta there. My meltdowns have worsened ever since my dad died, but I think the extreme regression is mostly grief-related. I frequently get flashbacks of the things we did together (my memory is photographic, and when I remember events I often remember at least a few specific details) and even though they are good memories, I get a really bad headache. Lately I've been fantasizing about a "Conflagration Combatant Crew" equipped with pressure washers, baking soda, sand bags, hard hats, and welding shields who drive a large quadricycle with a big bell on top and travel the streets of Ancient Rome and Edo Japan with the hazard lights on.otomodachifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01080731527191001123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644538309673050572.post-48604248932072336432016-01-15T23:35:42.800-05:002016-01-15T23:35:42.800-05:00I like Blue's Clues, too.

I'm sad that Nickelodeon isn't letting theaters perform Blue's Clues Live: Blue's Birthday Party and Blue's Clues Live: The Most Spectacular Place anymore. I really want to see it. I've heard that in a community theater production of the latter show in Cleveland, Ohio in July and August of 2008, Ben Fankhauser played the role of Steve. I didn't see him in that show (I live in New York), but I saw him at Newsies and I liked it. Please ask them to revive the show so I can see it. I also want to get the CD used for rehearsals by Theatrical Rights Worldwide.otomodachifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01080731527191001123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644538309673050572.post-11547992927824643252015-07-23T12:44:09.108-04:002015-07-23T12:44:09.108-04:00I am in the NYC area and did see this program on t...I am in the NYC area and did see this program on the website.

I have started to think that my kid's meltdowns as he has gotten older are not so much sensory based but an almost OCD need to complete whatever it is he had planned in his head. When it doesn't happen, he needs to purge it and sadly the purge generally happens all over us. :(Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04970758459195770397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644538309673050572.post-80001074018100262832015-05-04T13:58:09.842-04:002015-05-04T13:58:09.842-04:00So got this, from the whole hotel issue to the car...So got this, from the whole hotel issue to the car incident and to then wanting a lunch out! As usual you handled all with humor and grace. So glad your husband got to enjoy himself. People just don't get that 98% of what's fun for other people is either work or totally sucks for our families.
