Needing prompts
I've noticed that in this community we tend to make posts close together, usually with one post seemingly inspiring another (at least from what I've observed) and was wondering if maybe this has to do with something I know I do, which is put something off for a while before being prompted by something and having a "Oh, right!" moment that sets me up to do it.
For instance, it's my job at my house to empty our dishwasher, and while I usually remember to do it it's usually not until someone either mentions it directly or indirectly that I go and do it... and usually fill it back up after I'm done with that (not my job). The other day I also managed to organize our CD case after someone was looking for something and I decided to help them, and then decided to organize the rest of the case in the process, just because I was already down there.
I'm like that with cleaning too, it's not until something random prompts me that I enter a scorched earth campaign and do absolutely everything from the carpets to the tops of the shelves just because I'm already doing something in that area. Generally speaking, it drives my parents nuts.
I generally have a good attention span, but I guess things "set me off" to do a certain thing and then some. Thoughts?
