[nilesfunnies] Your time will come (if it hasn't already!)
Age-activated Attention Deficit Disorder (A.A.A.D.D.)
You decide to wash the car
As you start towards the garage, you notice that there is mail in the hall
You decide to go through the mail before washing the car
You put your keys down on the hall table, put the junk mail in the rubbish
bin, and notice that the bin is full
So, you decide to put the bills back down and take out the rubbish first
But then you think "since I'm going near the post box to take out the
rubbish, I'll pay the bills first"
You get your chequebook and see that there is only 1 cheque left
The new cheque book is in the desk in the study, so you go to the desk where
you find the cup of coffee you'd been drinking
Looking for the chequebook, you must first move aside the coffee, so that
you don't knock it over
Setting the coffee down on the filing cabinet, you find the reading glasses
that you've been looking for all morning
You decide to put them back on the desk, but first you need to water the
flowers
You put the glasses back down on the filing cabinet, and go to the kitchen
for water for the flowers, when you suddenly spot the TV remote, and as
you'll
be looking for this later and won't remember where it is, you decide to put
it back where it belongs, but first you'll water the flowers
You manage to spill some water on the floor while carrying it to the flowers
So you out the remote down and get some cloths to mop up
Then you head off down the hall trying to remember what you were going 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 in the study, the flowers aren't watered, there is
still only 1 cheque left in the book, you can't find the remote, you can't
find your glasses and you don't remember what you did with the car keys
Then you try to work out why nothing got done all day and you're baffled
because you know you were busy all day long and you're really tired!!
