Why Am I Like This, pt. XII

Me: “Welp, I’ve been staring at my computer screen doing literally nothing all day and now it’s after 6. Guess I better call it. I’ll just text my spouse and let them know I’m leaving…and I should look at the function I was working on so I’ll remember where I left off…”

My brain, smashing through the wall like the Kool-Aid Man: “ALL RIIIIIGHT I’M READY, LET’S LOCK THE F*CK IN”

Why Am I Like This, pt. IX

*shares a meme on social media*

*scrolls through more memes, shares another*

*scrolls back, sees the meme I shared 15 seconds ago*

*has to check own status because I can’t remember if I actually shared it or just thought about sharing it*

*meme is about ADHD*

It’s Nice to Know I Care

Me: It’s a good thing I put this appointment in my calendar for 15 minutes before the actual time, ’cause if it really was at 2:30 I would be running so late right now.

…I should probably call and make sure it really is at 2:45 instead. If I’m misremembering I am probably gonna have to reschedule 😥

Soon…

Receptionist: So, what was your question?

Me: I just wanted to confirm the time of my appointment today.

Receptionist: All right, let’s see here…it looks like it’s at 3 pm.

Me: …Three o’clock?

Receptionist: Yes, that’s right.

Me: *suddenly overwhelmed by the strange feeling of being lovingly cared for by my own past self*

Should’ve Called It Attention Disobedience Disorder

Me: “Ugh, [trope X] is so [gross/overdone/boring] in [genre Y]. They just fit together so perfectly to make a bad story–like soul mates, but for awfulness instead of love. It’s probably impossible to put them together and have something good come out.”

My hyperfocus: “Hold my beer.”
