Re: Funniest ADD Moment — What's yours?

[memzak]

I had a part time job a few years ago working two days a week. I got through the first few weeks ok but then one wednesday I just forgot to go to work. I got a call from the boss finally and realized I had totally lost track of what day of the week it was! I forgot again a couple of weeks later but remembered and went in late and nearly forgot 2 or 3 other times and always on wednesday but each time was only an hour or two late.

I have to tell you about posting this and this is not the first time this has happened. I clicked on this subject and read a whole section and thought i a couple of things that happened to me that were funny and wanted to post them. Example of ADD and distorted time. I got distracted by something else and ended up on another website and then remembered that I wanted to post something and tried to go back. I had timed out on the free internet I was using.

I had to log back into the internet then back into this site, find the forum I was reading. didnt really recognize it but read a whole bunch more then decided to post again, got to the reply area and my daughter called to be picked up. So I shut down, pick her up, come back to the free Wifi, login to internet and site read a whole bunch more then decided to post again, cant remember all of the funnier story although its a lot like the UPS story, spend about a 1/2 hour composing post, hit send and I had been timed out again!

GRRRR

I am all loged in again and typing. I dont think its been two hours again. This is not the first time i have spent hours trying to post something. I spent 2 hours writing a very long post only to lose it because i had lost my connection.

My daughter keeps telling my “copy pastie is your friend” meaning to write this in a program like wordpad then copy and paste it here which i did a lot before they fixed the posting spaces so nicely. Now i think thats just an extra step why bother?

My other story was about leaving the house. I was having a terribly ADD morning running back and forth and freaking out trying to get to work. I finally got out the front door and to the car. I had forgotten my coffee cup and went back in to get it. I got back to the car, got in and turned the key then remembered I had forgotten something else more important. I got to the front door and realized I had left my keys in the car so I had to go back to the car to get my keys. Then i could return to the house to get the other thing i forgot and leave. I was two hours late for work that day.
