    本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛~~~*~~~ AAADD ~~~*~~~

    I just wanted to let you know that I have recently been diagnosed with
    AAADD - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder This is how it goes . . .

    I decide to do the laundry, start down the hall and notice the newspaper
    on table. OK, I'm going to do the laundry . . .

    BUT FIRST I'm going to read the newspaper. After that, I notice the mail
    on the table. OK, I'll just put the newspaper in the recycle stack . . .

    BUT FIRST I'll look through the pile of mail and see if there are any
    bills to be paid. Yes. Now where is the checkbook? Oops . . . there's the
    empty glass from yesterday on the coffee table. I'm going to look for
    that checkbook . . .

    BUT FIRST I need to put the glass in the sink. I head for the kitchen,
    look out the window, notice my poor flowers need a drink of water. I put
    the glass in the sink and there's the remote for the TV on the kitchen
    counter. What's it doing here? I'll just put it away . . .

    BUT FIRST I need to water those plants. I head for the door and . . .
    Aaaagh! stepped on the cat. Cat needs to be fed.
    Okay, I'll put the remote away and water the plants . . .

    BUT FIRST I need to feed the cat.

    END OF DAY: Laundry is not done, newspapers are still on the floor, glass
    is still in the sink, bills are not paid, checkbook is still lost, and the
    cat ate the remote control . . .

    And, when I try to figure out how come nothing got done today, I'm baffled
    because . . . I KNOW I WAS BUSY ALL DAY! I realize this condition is
    serious . . .
    I'd get help . . .

    BUT FIRST . . . I think I’ll check my e-mail . . . . . . . . .更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
