laughing at yourself is theraputic (thank god for that0

>>I can soooo relate to this....>>
Is this about someone you know?
>> >>A. A. A. D. D. - Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.>> >>
This is how it manifests:>> >>
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 start toward the garage, I notice that there is mail on the porch
>>table that I brought up from the mailbox earlier.>> >>
I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.>> >>
I lay the car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage>>
can under the table, and notice that the can is full.>> >>
So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the garbage>>
first.>> >>
But then I think, since I'm going to be near the mailbox when I take out>>
the garbage anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.>> >>
I take my checkbook off the table, and see 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 can of Coke that I had been drinking.>> >>
I'm going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the Coke aside>>
so that I don't accidentally knock it over. I see that the Coke is>>
getting warm, and I decide I should put it in the refrigerator to keep>>
it 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 better put them back on my desk, but first I'm going to water>>
the flowers.>> >>
I set the glasses back down on th e 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 pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit 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 don't have enough water.>>
* The floor is soaked.>>
* There is still only one check in my check book.>>
* I can't find the remote.>>
* I can't find my glasses.>>
* I don't remember what I did with the car keys.>>
* The yard is flooded.>> >>
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. 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.>> >>
Do me a favor, will you?>> >>
Forward this message to everyone you know, because I don't remember to>>
whom it has been sent.>> >>
Don't laugh -- if this isn't you yet, your day is coming!>> >>
GROWING OLDER IS MANDATORY.>>
GROWING UP IS OPTIONAL.>>
LAUGHING AT YOURSELF IS THERAPEUTIC!
