Of all the things I miss in life .......... I think I miss my mind the most
AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT GETTING OLD!!!
Shit! Now I forgot what I was gonna tell ya.
Okay. This is how it goes.
I decide to wash the car.
I start toward the garage and notice the mail on the table.
Ok, I'm going to wash the car . . . but first I better go through the mail.

I lay the car keys down on the table,
discard the junk mail
and notice the trash can is full.

Okay. I'll just leave the bills on the table while I take the trash can out.
But . . . since I'm going to be near the mailbox anyway . . . I'll just pay these few bills first.

Oops, there's only one check left.
I'm going to look for those checks,
but first I need to put my coke further away from the computer.

I head towards the kitchen
and my flowers catch my eye.
They need some water.

I set the coke on the counter and,
uh oh!
There are my glasses.
I was looking for them all morning.
I'd better put them away first.

I fill a container with water and head for the flower pots.
Aaaaaagh!
Someone left the TV remote in the kitchen!
We'll never think to look in the kitchen tonight when we want to watch television,
so I'd better put it back in the family room where it belongs.
I splash some water into the pots and onto the floor.
I throw the romote onto a soft cushion on the sofa
and I head back down the hall
trying to figure out what it was I was going to do.

End of the Day:
The bills are unpaid.
The coke is sitting on the kitchen counter.
The flowers are half watered.
The checkbook still only has one check in it and I can't seem to find my car keys
When I try to figure out how come nothing got done today,
I'm baffled
because I KNOW I WAS BUSY ALL DAY LONG !!!
I realize this is a serious condition.
but first,
I think I'll check my e-mail.
