Shit, just pick up any book on Asperger from Amazon.

  that's not it -- i don't exhibit any of the social limitations on interaction; i feel empathy, am better than most at reading body language, am a reasonable public speaker, able to generate emotional response from an audience, etc. while i'm fond of and take comfort in ritual (i use a shaving kit, with a brush and bowl, for instance) it is not a governing behavior, and i don't lose myself in repetitive actions. they actually bother me. so that's likely not it. i don't think the article is describing something that's disorder-ly, just a particular type of mental modeling.
