I can remember events on the exact date that they occurred, like what I was doing on the Thursday night of the third week of last June, or what I was thinking on any random day in the last few years.
That is a very unusual talent, that some autists have.
I didn't need a calculator to work out large sums
That's a similar trait that a lot of autists have.
Also, although probably unrelated to the other stuff, I have an obsession with the way I look.
That is an unusual way to describe yourself. Most people wouldn't diagnose themselves that 'objectivly'.

That doesn't sound like an autist.
