Can you relate???

> Recently, I was diagnosed with AAADD: Age Activated Attention Deficit
> Disorder.
>
> This is how it manifests:
>
> I decided to wash my car.
>
> As I start toward the garage, I spotted the mail on the hall table.
> I should go through the mail before I wash the car.
> I lay the car keys on the table, put the junk mail in the trash can under
> the table, and notice that the trash can is full.
>
> So, I put the bills back on the table and take out the trash first.
>
> Since I'm going to be near the mailbox when I take out the trash anyway,
> I might as well pay the bills first.
>
> I see my checkbook on the table, but there is only one check left. My
> extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go to my desk, where I find
> the bottle of juice that I had been drinking.
>
> I'm going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the juice aside
> so that I don't accidentally knock it over.
>
> But the juice is getting warm, and should be put in the refrigerator to
keep
> it cold.
>
> Heading toward the kitchen with the juice, a vase of flowers on the
> counter catches my eye. They need to be watered.
>
> I set the juice down on the counter, and find my reading glasses, for
> which I've been searching all morning.
>
> I had 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.
>
> Someone left it on the kitchen table.
>
> Tonight when we sit down to watch TV, we will be looking for the remote,
> but nobody will remember that it's on the kitchen table. I should 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 put the remote back down on the table, and get some towels to 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 bottle of
> juice sitting on the counter, the flowers aren't 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.
>
> I'm trying to figure out why nothing got done today;
> it's quite baffling because I know I was busy all day long, and I'm
> really tired.
>
> I know 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 favor, will you?
>
> Forward this message to whoever you think might enjoy it, because I don't
> remember who I've already sent it to.
