Posted by John Thomas (Member # 2854) on :

Oh, the buzzzer on teh dryer went off, I'd better go get the clothes out. Thump, thump thump (walking downstairs)...oh the steps need sweeping, were is my broom...?
Karyn, Welcome to the club. You know they have things that you take for that...?!
People laugh when I tell them I am on Ritalin. They think its a joke. I laugh but Ritalin literally saved my life.
Posted by Mike Pipes (Member # 1573) on :
I have a won-ton lust for rangoons. . . . . . no crabs here, I guess that's a good thing. LOL . . . . . two wrongs don't make a right but three lefts make you dizzy . . . . . . . I'd take Ritalin but I forget where I put the bottle.
Posted by Sheila Ferrell (Member # 3741) on :
LOL to . . .whoever it was that started this post.
Um, ditto's to all the statements.
I totally concur.
But I resent the implication that ANYONE might be ADD. My key board is Lysdexic. But I take no medication for either. It takes me a really long time to post because I have to go over and over it, re-reading and repairing every word, so I hopefully will appear to be lucid.
I think ADD is a state of mind brought on by not paying attention.
I think ADD was created to explain why some genius-type people get bored so easy.
It takes a lot of concentration to focus, and this can be boring to for brilliant people, lol.
But then, you know about the blonde who stood for hours looking at the orange juice can because it said concentrate.....
Also, Some people just find every little thing funny and can not maintain a serious vision due to the hilarities of life.
BTW: How many cockroaches does it take to change a light bulb??
You can't count 'em cause when you turn the light on they all scatter . . . Posted by AdrienneMorgan (Member # 1046) on :
People think I have ADD...but they just don't understand...oh look! a Chicken!!!
Posted by KARYN BUSH (Member # 1948) on :
yes they do have things to take for it! i had to laugh when i read the little blurb that comes with the prescription....may cause a false sense of well being....well yeeeaaah! isn't that what drugs are all about?! lol...never take life too seriously...humor is key.

three ladies met for coffee in one of their houses and started discussing memory problems.One lady said she stood in front of her open fridge door wondering if she was there to get something or had she just put something in the fridge.The next lady said she was standing at the top of the stairs wondering if she had gone up to get something or had just taken something up.They both expressed their concern on these issues when the third lady said,"I'm sure glad I dont have that problem,knock on wood" as she tapped her knuckles on the table,------"oh there is someone at the door"
Posted by mark zilliox (Member # 3873) on :
that's funny, but i do have ADD, my son was diagnosed several years ago, so i eventually was "checked up from the neck up". It's the only way i can get med's ! It seems to fit the sign trade, short term creativity & boo-koo idea's, just shy of crashing & splashing. it can be a good thing. My doctor said don't feel embarrased u have to take meds ( i had to tell the medical squadron in my air reserve wing ), 1 out of 5 people SHOULD be on some kind of medication !
besides i reassure good ol' customers i not only have ADD but a Phd in the sign trade- post hole digger !
Posted by Todd Gill (Member # 2569) on :
Mike, was that tape measure a bright green LevorLock??? I just found one....ooops, that's the one I misplaced. Hehehe
LOL on the Blonde OJ joke Sheila...

I've got TMSTF which contributes to CRS. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -That's - Too Much Sh!t To Finish.

Whats that smell?
Posted by Mike Pipes (Member # 1573) on :
Todd, actually I think Ray found it. It was a Stanley tape, but I'll take yours too cause I know I'm gonna lose another one.
Hey.. new concept just popped into my head..
I bet that every time we lose something it actually falls into an intradimensional hole (I just made that word up) so that someone else, in some other location, finds it thinking they just found the one *they* lost. Eh??
That's my theory and I'm stickin to it!
Posted by Laura Butler (Member # 1830) on :
Mike, I lost my car in the parking lot. Are you driving a 2000 dk blue Venture now?
Posted by Mike Pipes (Member # 1573) on :
Nope Laura, I'm driving a lowered minitruck that's an interesting patchwork of forest green, grey primer, black primer and exposed Everglass.
If I lose it, it wont be lost for long. Posted by Deb Fowler (Member # 1039) on :
YUP, I just price all my signs the same and then I don't have to figure after the tivecreatness has wiped me out. no wonder I'm broke/rich. well it covers it all, right?

LSD clarifies everything. You will soon realize its the rest of the world thats nuts. Did you know that Carey Grant was prescribed acid and took it to help him when he was young? I just learned that on public tv last weekend.
Posted by KARYN BUSH (Member # 1948) on :
well ya can't knock the meds for add until you've tried them...i personally think they're wonderful....it keeps me from doing the illegal ones. Posted by David Wright (Member # 111) on :
The drug dealer, bartender or your personal doctor: what's the difference? Whatever gets you through it.
Posted by jimmy chatham (Member # 525) on :
i don't have add. i am just crazy.
Posted by Fred Floyd (Member # 2251) on :
Well all that is better than being so old that you have joined the elite group known as the "CRAFT". To explain let me change a word or two so you still get the meaning. "Cant Remember A Frigging Thing".

I don't have ADD, I have..What's that other
Posted by KARYN BUSH (Member # 1948) on :
subtract?
Posted by Dana Bowers (Member # 780) on :
Hey... dogs and cats can't add or subtract, but they sure can multiply!!
ADD, CRS, PMS... should I call an EMT? Better make it ASAP!
OH... OK.
How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop?
Posted by James Donahue (Member # 3624) on :
Hey Bob, I've dropped acid more times than I can count (everybody says: "So THAT EXPLAINS it"), and I'm really glad I'm out of that, but years after I was clean, I heard what I thought was the most accurate description of LSD effects (This from a guy on the street, no MD): "Acid exagerates whatever mood you were already in". It seems to make sense, I've had bad trips, and I've laughed for so many hours my stomach hurt.
