something is up with this kid.

I picked up after school. We went to Mc's in a nearby town and had a

leisurely early supper. Then we went to the grocery store.

Usually at the grocery store I can expect a certain amount of stimming and

out-of-control behaviour. I'm used to it; I anticipate it. Not a problem.

Annoying? Yes. Problem? No. TODAY, about half way through the store, he LOST

it. In a very cheerful way, but lost it nonetheless. The only word I can find

to describe what he was doing is " jitterbugging " . He was all over the place!

Bouncing, jiggling, running, hiding, grabbing, bumping, singing, singing,

SINGING... It was AWFUL. I tore a lady to shreds when she was rude to me,

which is something I NEVER do...but she was in my way and sniped at me when I

excused myself to try to go around her -- usually I can just ignore that, but

NOT this time...I HAD to get him OUT of there! (and, of course, I am utterly

incapable of going to the next aisle and coming back to that one when she's gone

-- you MUST follow the order of the aisles or the whole trip is a waste because

you'll forget something)

What the heck is going on with him?

<sigh>

I can understand THAT! But as for what was up with him, well, even NT kids

are pretty weird. Lots of times they seem pretty wired. I am sure that

there is always an explanation for it but usually I haven't any idea.

Sorry Marc was gone when you got home.

She probably deserved it.

As for the hyperactivity, Boone gets like this at times. It's hard to

ignore, but I do my best.
