A morning in the life of ADD Me.
I wake up at 630am today. In bed, I plan to fold laundry while watching True Grit. I get up to look for the Blu-ray when I spot the Call of Duty Black Ops game. I tell myself: it’s only 630am, you can play until about 7am. So I go play a couple of rounds until I get upset at some rude online players. So sometime around 730am, I go upstairs to begin folding laundry. Along the way, I say good morning to the cat Mimzy and lay beside her to give her a morning rub for 5 minutes. Then I go stand, pick up shirts hanging to dry on the banister. I decided that they need a quick run in the dryer. So I go and toss them in. I bring a basket full of clothes to the bedroom and start folding. I remember that I was suppose to watch True Grit, so I go down and get the disc. I come back up, pop it in and resume folding. After 10 minutes, I get the shirts out of the dryer. I decide to clean the lint filter, a chore I do not particularly like. I become proud of myself of actually getting it done now when usually I tell myself I’ll get it next time. But because it’s a fire hazard, I go ahead and do it. I then think of tweeting about it. I meant to tweet: I cleaned the lint filter because it is a fire hazard even though I do not like this chore. There must a be a life application in here somewhere. Instead, I tweet thoughts about video gaming. And since I was sitting down at the computer, I decided to check Facebook real quick. On the top of the page was a post from an old acquaintance from high school We had a common friend, a girl who owned the carpool service I rode in. And I thought that I’d like to add her to Facebook, so I searched for her, found her and sent her a message. Further down, I check out a couple of other things, watch a couple of Youtube videos, comment on some people’s posts. Wow, many people seem to be up and about this Saturday morning. I wonder if I should go out for a swim. I check the weather online: 77 degrees. Not bad. But I remember, hey, wasn’t I suppose to finish folding laundry. Maybe I can go for a swim after doing that.
It is now 930am. Only God knows if and when I can make it to the pool today. Or ever.
