I have a headache....
Well, go take a tylenol.
I go to the kitchen, forget why I'm there, and make coffee. I like coffee.
I still have a headache.
Did you really forget to get that painkiller?
I go to the kitchen, wander away halfway there, and end up petting the cat. She purrs.
I still have a headache.
Really? This time, get up and actually go take some painkiller.
I'm really having trouble with executive function today. I should blog about this.
I blog about it. I still have a headache.
Maybe now that you're done, you'll finally be able to successfully take some frickin' tylenol?!
Maybe.
Siiigh....
And this, ladies and gentlefolks, is how a simple task can take half an hour.
