Ticketmaster sent me an important reminder about my upcoming gig.
I completely freaked out. I need at least a fortnight to prepare for a night out now I’m 112. I’m not ready for something this weekend. I need at least a week, probably two weeks notice. (Sure, I know I bought the tickets at least a year ago. That’s entirely different. That was past Nic).
My sister has a phrase that finally makes sense to my life: “Thats future Xs problem” (In this case. When I bought the tickets: “That’s future Nic’s problem”)
The gig is on May 10th.
That’s like a hundred years away. Ticketmaster is a panicker. 🙄
Yes I plan things. Yes I am pretty organised in my work life. But I have practically no organisational skills in my real life. Tell me when it relates to my work life (including relating to 1 hour commute). If it’s evenings or weekends I need two day before notice max. Everything else is blah blah blah.
I am finally learning that is an ADHD trait and I am now hopefully (unless I missed a deadline with my GP) that I am on the pathway to confirm I am not useless, just differently abled.
We need more ADHD programmers in the world. We need more people to understand the “future” problem. What would AI look like if we gave it ADHD qualities?
