About Who I Am

My name is David Charles Gratiot and I'm an LDS/Mormon Aspie. In other words I have Asperger's Syndrome and I'm a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I'm from Provo, Utah and lived here for over half of my life. I also lived in Tempe, Arizona for most of my teen years and as a young adult. That was from 1988-1999 and 2000-2001 when I lived in Tempe. Between 1978-1980 my family and I lived in San Jose, California and I can still remember living there. My favorite mountain on earth is Mount Timpanogos and my favorite television show is The Simpsons. I have a lot of things I like to do but I will talk about them in other posts. I'm 36 yrs old and I'm still single. I never been married or had a girlfriend in my life. I have three blood brothers and no blood sisters and I'm the oldest child. I have four step brothers and one step sister but I have not met them yet. My parents got a divorce when I was an adult. My mother is remarried to a good guy that really helps and loves her a lot. They both live in Missouri, which I never been before. The only states I have been in my life are: Utah, Arizona, California, Nevada, and Idaho. My father lives in a retirement center in Missouri and he enjoys it a lot. My father and two of my blood brothers have Asperger's Syndrome too. Our family first heard of AS (short for Asperger's Syndrome) in the year 2000 when my youngest brother was diagnosed with it and then shortly after my other brother and I and my father were diagnosed with AS. The two brothers that have AS still lives in Arizona. One lives in a group home in Phoenix and the other lives in Tempe. My other brother that does not have AS is married and has two children and they live in Missouri. My brother and his wife were married in 2001. I couldn't go to their wedding because I was living up here in Provo. I truly wanted to go to the wedding but I didn't had the money to go down to Tempe. I have one nephew and one niece that I never met before but would love to meet them. They are my brothers two children.

This blog will be anything and everthing about me and the way I see the world. I will put down my thoughts, feelings, opinions, and ideas here. I will try and leave my big personal issues out because they are private and personal. I will put down my pictures and my artwork in this blog and talk about them. I will also put down some fictional story ideas here.

I will end this post here, so I can save some stuff for other posts. Thanks for reading!
