You should do what I do and put off something that needs doing until it needs doing extremely urgently. It gives you a lot more free time to errrm do whatever it is I do with all the free time I have.

Try making a list of things to do and crossing them off one by one when you complete them(that control freak just keeps surfacing when I least expect it)

You just love the thrill of almost forgeting something urgent don't you?
Have you remembered something urgent far too late to do it !

No I usually forget about stuff that's far too late to do.
It's what shrugs are made for.

A list of various shrugs?
Or perhaps the exercise I should be doing...?
Or do you mean the things I'm supposed to remember?
I've got a great memory. Lists. Pah.
I remember everything that I have ever experienced, seen, or done,or need to do.
However, finding the particular slot of my brain that stored all the stuff that I need to know when I need to know it takes a little time...
Give me a year or so and I'll come up with the goods though....

No.
Since confusion is my natural state, I'm not really confused.
I know someone that makes lists.
In fact they have endless numbers of bits of paper that populate their pockets, all with things to do or buy on them...
They remember marginally less than I do...

Today for instance there was onme perched on a telegraph pole about 50 yards up the road. I pulled in a got my camera out... two big lorries drove very close to the pole and it flew of towards the fields.
Disappointed, I packed my camera away again and turned to check the road was clear before reversing..Gliding low in the air not twenty feet from my car was the self same buzzard...
