My oldest daughter shared a joke with me the other day that I thought was a very concise and fitting description of who I am. I can’t remember the Comedian who did the particular skit but a search I did came up with an equally ‘eloquent’ rendition here: http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/ADHD .
This my friends, describes me! Thus, when my daughter told me about the skit, I knew that I had to adopt the ‘Hi-Def’ quip somewhere. I could easily slap it onto a ‘Hello – My name is..” sticker and smack it onto the middle of my forehead, but my family already knows who I am…and I don’t get out much so what’s the point!
I haven’t always been a ‘Hi-Def’er’ but then, maybe I have been but just didn’t know what to call it. I think I swung into that category about the same time that Hi-def TV’s hit the market…no, maybe a bit before that. I’m usually a step or two ahead of new fads, sometimes I am years ahead (Feng Shui comes to mind, I’ve been actively involved in that one since 1989 when there were all of 2 websites out here about it)…and most often by the time others are just learning about something, I’ve already been there, done that and am off to something entirely different. Obviously ADD/ADHD has been no different.
So, what you will find here will most likely be a mish-mash of interests…of which I have many. To the many who already know me, I’m certainly considered a wishy-washy, no sense of direction individual (actually I HAVE no sense of direction…East, West, North, South? Huh? Give me landmarks good man…landmarks!) Just in case you are wondering…no I can’t read a Map very well either…usually by the time someone expects me to tell them where such and such a place, street or building is…they’ve already passed it and have to find it on their own anyway.
But…back we go. This blog is probably going to be nothing more than one of my short viewed spans…but I have to say this, I work hard, or try to…in order to stay on track and get one thing done at a time….but I get bored! Quickly. So, the works that you will see here are ones that may have taken skill to complete artistically, but they’ve also taken far more skill to complete at all!
I wonder if ADD/HD increases as we age…becomes more prevalent? There I go … off on something else.
Enjoy (or try) and thanks for stopping by. Yes, actually I do write poetry too…really. I’ve even had some published. Seriously! 
(Whoops, off track again..typical!)
