It's so ..... me!

A.A.A.D.D. – Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder: “I decide to wash my car. As I start toward the garage, I notice that there is mail on the hall table. I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car. I lay my car keys down on the hall table, put the junk mail in the trash can under the table, and notice the trash can is full. So I decide to put the bills back on the table, and take out the trash first. But then I think, since I’m going to be near the mailbox when I take out the trash, I should pay the bills first. I take my checkbook out of my purse, and realize there is only one check left. My extra checks are in my desk in my office, so I go to my desk where I find the can of Coke I had been drinking. I’m going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the Coke can aside so that I don’t accidentally knock it over. I see that the Coke is getting warm, so I decide I should put it in the refrigerator so that it will stay cold. As I head toward the kitchen with the coke, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye...they need to be watered. I set the Coke down on the counter, and I discover my reading glasses that I’ve been searching for all morning. I decide I had better put them back on my desk, but first I am going to water the flowers. I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water, and suddenly, I spot the TV remote...someone left it on the kitchen table. I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV I will be looking for the remote, but I won’t remember that it’s on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs, but first I’ll water the flowers. I splash some water on the flowers, but most of it spills on the floor. So, I set the remote back down 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 are not watered, there is still only one check in my checkbook, 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 day long, and I’m really tired.”
