#executive dysfunction junction what's your function

[wern]

anyways im like. stalled out on my bed rn.. like you know when you tell a sim to go make food but you forget to give them a door to leave the room so they're just standing there. except i don't even know what my command is? like i cant figure out what im supposed to be doing? sleeping i guess. but that doesn't seem right. but it's 4:40am so

Reason 1 million executive dysfunction cannot be just laziness: I keep going into the kitchen intending to make myself food and accidentally doing all the dishes and not eating anything

hey fuckhead

you need to find a notebook to be your to do list notebook, draw all over the cover so you recognize it, and then write on the first page a list of steps to making a to-do list, or else you are probably not going to brush your teeth for like 3 more years

you find things by finding a pen and- okay darn it. you look at things, but in this case you have to look at things really individually, and move things out of the way of the things, and maybe put them on the beanbag?

if you find the notebook you attached to a string you can tie your ability to think through steps to you so you don't lose it again

I don't know how you do that, probably by cleaning, which you do by noticing the time, but not just noticing the time. maybe you do that by making a to do list! wonderful

also feed your corporeal form, I know you ate a bagel once and feel like that means you never have to eat again but you still do.

me: we need... to do things

brain: we are

me: we are literally rocking back and forth and thinking very hard about the things being done 

brain: this is how you do things. how else am i supposed to do things 

me: i don’t know??? 

brain: okay, i’m doing something different. are we doing things now? what were we doing? how do we figure out what we should be doing? is this how? 

me: idk

me: *makes to do list*

me: where’d it go

food is BEHIND A THING therefore CANNOT GET 

*has to ask someone else to move the thing because cannot concentrate long enough to figure out how*

me, spending an hour making a flowchart explaining to myself how to walk from one particular room in a particular building to another particular room to get a particular object: I am an extremely normal human, I love making human sounds, I like doing the things that humans do, such as inserting matter in my mouth, and crying
