AAADD

As'salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh:  
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 today. I start down the hall and
notice the
newspaper on the 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. Oh darn. 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 better get help...

BUT FIRST...I think I'll check my e-mail.

Nope, that's just called Madina Addiction.  There were posts about all the symptoms a few months ago.  I think they're in the Bebzi stand archives.  Get yourself diagnosed!!!  :)
