It is! i do it while listening to the lamentations/grotesque-sugar-sweet cliches at meetings!!!

I can get a lot done in an hour of sheer fucking boredom.

I have to be doing something with my hands pretty much all the time; the three tall skinny ones are on the backs of bookmarks from study groups at work, drawn over the course of one-hour weekly meetings learning Java. I started at the bottom and worked my way up.

Oh - I may have been misleading with "bookmarks". They are each half of a regular sheet of paper. About 4x11.

I find mine is a sort of hypergraphia.

I don't write, though, so I guess it's hyperdoolelia.

As a child, I would draw prohibitively elaborate mazes.

Whatever this is in the DSM, my daughter has it.

Well it ain't Aspergers, because that doesn't exist anymore. I'm gonna go with Labrynthine Hypergraphia. (No it's not real.)
