A.A.A.D.D. – Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder – Humor

I love receiving and saving humorous emails. I promised you that I will share most of them with you, and this one is quite fitting for publishing on my blog.
I was tearing up from laughing, while reading this for the first time, because I can easily think of few people who fit into this category, and any multi-tasker can attest to this as well, including myself.
A.A.A.D.D. – Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder
This is how it manifests itself:
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 head towards the garage, I notice mail on the porch table that I picked up from the post man 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 recycling box under the table, and notice that the recycling box is full.So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the recycling first.
But then I think, since I’m going to be near the post-box when I take out the recycling paper anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.
I take my check book off the table, and notice that there is only one check left.
My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the cup of coffee I’d been drinking.
I’m going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the coffee aside so that I don’t accidentally knock it over.
The coffee is getting cold, and I decide to make another cup.
As I head toward the kitchen with the cold coffee, a vase of flowers on the worktop catches my eye – the flowers need water.
I put the coffee on the worktop 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 put the glasses back down on the worktop, fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote control. Someone left it on the kitchen table.I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I’ll be looking for the remote, but I won’t remember that it’s on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back where it belongs, but first I’ll water the flowers.
I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
So, I put 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 cold cup of coffee sitting on the counter, the flowers don’t have enough water, there is still only 1 check in my check 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 damn day, and I’m really tired.
I realize this is a serious problem, and I’ll try to get some help for it, but first I’ll check my e-mail….Don’t laugh – if this isn’t you yet, your day is coming!!
I hope you had a good laugh!!!! I sure did!!!
