Shiny....

I've often said that I had 2 speeds...stop and go.  Normally when I'm at work, I can focus on whatever it is that needs to be done..and, well, git r dun...  Mostly because I hate shit on my desk and have this need for everything to be where it should be. 

But then I have days like today when I can't seem to focus at all...everything is distracting me.  I'll start one thing, get an email and work on that...get a message...someone walks in...  I'm planning tonight, next Friday...working on RFQ's, RFI's and submittals...  and when I go back to my original project I forget where I was at....

sigh...

I've always been like this.

I have to have the radio on because it gives me something to block out so that I can focus on work.  I'm frickin wierd.

Someone said I have Adult Attention Deficit Disorder.  Does this mean I should be on drugs?  Hell, we all know that!

But let's take a gander...   Thanks to Wikipedia, we can all self-diagnose with relative ease and accuracy...

AADD/Hyperactivity Signs and Symptoms

The AADD symptoms in adults (according to this site) include:

• Procrastination:    (I never procrastinate) 
  
• Indecision, difficulty recalling and organizing details required for a task   (not bloody likely...this kid knows what she wants and how to get it) 
• Poor time management, losing track of time   (um...no....) 
• Avoiding tasks or jobs that require sustained attention   (well...a little..but only for icky jobs) 
• Difficulty initiating tasks  (see above response) 
• Difficulty completing and following through on tasks (and...see above response)
• Difficulty multitasking (hell no) 
• Difficulty shifting attention from one task to another (well dudes...that's my frickin problem...I can't STOP shifting my attention today!)

 
So plththth...I do not have this...but wait...there's the symptoms for hyperactivity somethingorother....
 

• Chooses highly active, stimulating jobs (well yeah...otherwise it would be boring as shit)  
• Avoids situations with low physical activity or sedentary work   (like what, I don't understand??) 
• May choose to work long hours or two jobs (all the freaks I work with work 10 hours a day...so what?) 
• Seeks constant activity (uh...yeah...) 
• Easily bored  (shut up) 
• Impatient (who me?  blush....) 
• Intolerant to frustration, easily irritated   (depends on how stupid some jack ass is being) 
• Impulsive, snap decisions and irresponsible behaviors (blush...heh heh...ugh) 
• Loses temper easily, angers quickly (I don't stay mad long..the sound of people laughing at me usually brings me back down to earth...whaaat????)

Hmmmm....
 
Well, according to Wikipedia, I have issues...but it ain't AADD!!  HA!
