[#]ADHD / #autism / #AuDHD people of the fediverse lend me thy ears.

I've been excitedly looking forward to an event for weeks. Today, when I actually have to go travel across London for it...

... well, I don't want to go! I'm making excuses. I'm too tired, I've got other things to do, my hip hurts, I don't fancy the journey, it's too cold etc etc

Every time this happens. For weeks or months I'll plan events then decide on the day I don't want to go.

For 4 years running , London ComicCon, for each of spring and autumn shows. That's 8 shows. I bought my tickets in advance. Prepared my outfit/cosplay.. would either not even leave the house or I'd travel all the way there .. only to bin my tickets at the door and immediately return home.

Is this a me thing? Or an us thing??

Well , I did "The thing" an advanced screening/uk premiere of a movie. Hung out with the directors and the three main stars afterwards.

So glad I went out. I was SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE at the start. I had to travel across London to an area I was unfamiliar with and the cinema was super crowded and noisy.

I nearly turned and left when I spilled my drink but dried myself off and gave myself a talking to. "You've come this far. " etc.

Movie was great. Weird but that's my bag. Then a Q&A with the two directors and three main stars. Then hung out in the bar and had a chat with them.

However, spoons are running out. Nearly in deficit. Have just enough to get home and collapse.

Managed to snag me an autographed movie poster too.

I should add.. this isn't an A-List Hollywood blockbuster. I wasn't hanging out with Tom Cruise, Scarlett Johansson or Christopher Nolan or anything XD

No, this is the movie I went to see
