I'm Sorry. What were you saying?

One thing that I always wondered about was my inability to concentrate. Even in the middle of an important conversation, I would suddenly realize that I had no idea of what the other person had been saying.

Other people would say, "My mind wandered." Mine didn't just wander, it went on a road trip. It wouldn't even be triggered by something the other person said! I would suddenly find myself thinking about eating ice cream in Germany in the middle of a conversation about...well, anything!

I often jokingly use the phrase, "I'm sorry. I went away for a second, but I'm back now." Very few people ever realize how accurate a description that is of what my life is like.

Oops! Adderol must be wearing off. I've just lost the entire track that this train was on.

We'll try again another day.
