I have a pretty big assignment due tomorrow. Big, as in I’ve had three weeks to work on it. (three? maybe four. Can’t remember.)

I, uh, haven’t actually started it yet.

I blame this, partially, on having the attention span of a rodent. If something doesn’t interest me, I find it difficult to stay on target for even a minute before I drift off.

Even things that really should hold my attention, don’t. Like driving. I tend to space out, thinking about things that have nothing to do with what’s going on around me until–FUCK, A CHEVY!

It’s not a good thing.

It also makes writing difficult at times because I tend to go off on long tangents that have little or nothing to do with my main topic.

Conversations, too, I guess. When I’m attempting to debate someone, I’ll often come up with a great point in the middle of my opponent speaking. By the time they’re done, I’ll have no idea what I wanted to say. None.

I’ve wondered if I have adult attention deficit disorder. I don’t remember being this flighty when I was a kid. Maybe I caused some damage with all the chemicals that have flowed through my brain.

So I’m trying to work on this assignment. It’s not working out. Fortunately, it’s not due until 11:59pm tomorrow night. Man, I would be screwed if it weren’t for electronic submission.
