So I was reading about Tourette's syndrome the other day on bus. You know, just some enjoyable and enlightening commute reading. (OK, this is the only stuff at hand that has little to do with my job. OK?)

So it is said that this is a unique syndrome that borders on obsessive-compulsive disorder and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Patients suffer from obsessive thoughts, compulsive urge for certain body movement, especially making the barely audible "tic, tic, tic” sounds.

("tick, tick tick" I goes. Man, this is hard. "tiken, tiken tiken" Now that feels more natual. Only the man across the aisle is watching me now.

stop praticing. read on)

Then I read about a scientist had to give up high-energy physics because every time he saw a "Danger--High Voltage" sign, he can't help but felt compelled to touch the equipment.

And I can't help but diagnoses with mild Tourette's.

Not a big surprise since I already self-diagnosed with ADHD last month.

I am reading and enjoying Gilbert and Sullivan opera now.

Have any of you New Yorkers seen Mikado? How is it?
