A.A.A.D.D.
They have finally found a diagnosis for my condition. Hooray!!
I have recently been diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. !
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder...
This is how it goes: I decide to wash the car; I start toward
the garage and notice the mail on the table.
Ok, I'm going to wash the car. But first I'm going to go
through the mail. I lay the car keys down on the desk, discard
the junk mail and I notice the trashcan is full.
Ok, I'll just put the bills on my desk and take the trashcan
out, but since I'm going to be near the mailbox anyway, I'll
pay these few bills first.
Now, where is my checkbook? Oops, there's only one check left.
My extra checks are in my desk.
Oh, there's the coke I was drinking. I'm going to look for
those checks.
But first I need to put my coke further away from the
computer, oh maybe I'll pop it into the fridge to keep it cold
for a while. I head towards the kitchen and my flowers catch my
eye, they need some water.
I set the coke on the counter and uh oh! There are my glasses.
I was looking for them all morning! I'd better put them away
first. I fill a container with water and head for the flower
pots - - Aaaaaagh!
Someone left the TV remote in the kitchen. We'll never think
to look in the kitchen tonight when we want to watch television
so I'd better put it back in the family room where it belongs.
I splash some water into the pots and onto the floor, I throw
the remote onto a soft cushion on the sofa and I head back down
the hall trying to figure out what it was I was going to do?
End of Day
The car isn't washed,
the bills are unpaid,
the coke is sitting on the kitchen counter,
the flowers are half watered,
the checkbook still only has one check in it
and I can't seem to find my car keys!
When I try to figure out how come nothing got done today, I'm
baffled because I KNOW I WAS BUSY ALL DAY LONG!!!
I realize this is a serious condition and I'll get help,
BUT FIRST I think I'll check my e-mail...
