KNOW THE SYMPTOMS.....PLEASE READ!
Hey - I resemble the following post
Don't laugh -- if this isn't you yet, your day is coming - for sure !KNOW THE SYMPTOMS.....PLEASE READ!
Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder.
Somehow I feel better, even though I have it!!
Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. -
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder
This is how it manifests:
I decide to water my garden.
As I turn on the hose in the driveway,
I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.
As I start toward the garage,
I notice mail on the porch table that
I brought up from the mail box earlier.
I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.
I lay my car keys on the table,
put the junk mail in the waste basket under the table,
and notice that the basket is full.
So, I decide to put the bills back
on the table and take out the rubbish first.
But then I think,
Since I'm going to be near the mailbox
when I take out the rubbish anyway,
I may as well pay the bills first.
I take my cheque book off the table,
and see that there is only one cheque left.
My extra cheques are in my desk in the study,
so I go inside the house to my desk where
I find the can of Coke I'd been drinking.
I'm going to look for my cheques,
but first I need to push the Coke aside
so that I don't accidentally knock it over..
The Coke is getting warm ,
and I decide to put it in the fridge to keep it cool.
As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke,
a vase of flowers on the counter
catches my eye -- they need water.
I put the Coke on the counter and
discover my reading glasses that
I've been searching for all morning.
I decide I better put them back on my desk,
but first I'm going to water the flowers.
I set the glasses back down on the counter,
fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote.
It's been left on the kitchen table.
I realise that tonight when I go to watch TV,
I'll be looking for the remote,
but won't remember that it's on the kitchen table,
so I decide to put it back in the lounge where it belongs,
but first I'll water the flowers.
I pour some water in the flowers,
but some spills on the floor.
So, I set the remote back on the table,
get some towels and wipe up the spill.
Then, I head down the hall trying to
remember what I was planning to do.
At the end of the day:
The car isn't washed
The bills aren't paid
There is a warm can of Coke sitting on the counter
The flowers don't have enough water
There is still only 1 cheque in my cheque book
I can't find the remote
I can't find my glasses
And I don't remember what I did with the car keys
Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today,
I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all darn day,
and I'm really tired.
I realise this is a serious problem,
and I'll try to get some help for it,
but first I'll check my e-mail....
Do me a favour.
Forward this message to everyone you know,
because I don't remember who the heck I've sent it to.
