I have ADHD-PI (I was only diagnosed recently this summer), which makes me prone to distraction and daydreams at any given moment, trains of thought that have long since passed their station, and absolute hyper-focus on passion projects and videogames. My life absolutely has to be organized on a spreadsheet. To illustrate how distracted I am, I was planning on getting up this morning, checking my email for a minute, and then getting the rest of my day rolling. It's been almost a couple hours (+30 minutes since the time of editing this) and here I am posting on forums. This happens pretty much every other morning, it seems like. I've lost shoes, sweatshirts, backpacks, books, sunglasses, I've driven an hour to work without my boots -- hell, I once walked out of a bowling alley with my bowling shoes still on, and it took a friend to notice before I actually walked back in and returned them.
Fun times. Not really, though.
I wouldn't be surprised if my ADD is also partly responsible for my tastes in music -- the more complicated or unusual the piece is, the longer I can dwell on it. This is one of the first tunes I ever got hooked into, and I swear I only played the game when I was like 3 or 4 at the time. I've memorized just about every videogame tune I've ever heard, I listen to every type of music except whatever's currently mainstream (e.g. prog rock, chiptune, jazz fusion, classical, classic hits; not dubstep, pop, rnb, etc.), and I whistle pretty much all the time.
Also, I'm left-handed, I like getting into debates with people, I have a weird aversion for any clothing with insignia on it, and I'm almost exclusively into fat chicks. So I guess those things are all pretty weird.
Also am I the only one who has their Windows display set to 150% magnification? Like holy shit, I just did this a couple days ago and now it feels like I can actually back away from my computer screen a little bit.
