There's a white kid beat boxing on stage. It's all I can do not to snicker.


My pharmacy just refused to dispense DAW Adderall XR because they would lose money on it. O_o


I finally gave up & bought an "ADHD watch" featuring silent vibrating alarms & on-screen reminder messages. No, my smartphone is not enough.


OK, I think I'm officially feeling overwhelmed. Working on 4th grant app of semester (week 9) and slides for 3 talks + class in next 5 days.


Going home early because I forgot my meds this AM. Better late than skipped!


I like teaching way more than I expected. That is all. For now.


It's a perfect 72F outside but the bus driver is blasting A/C full force. I'm cranky today.


Also, EVERY single pharmacy fucks up DAW Wellbutrin XL the first time & can never fix it the same day. Screws me over for a week each time.


triple regrets on trying mail order Rx: took too long (over 2 weeks) so I ran out, sent generic instead of DAW, & didn't save me an errand.


3 hours to prep for class and make myself presentable. Then meetings all afternoon. Then teaching all evening. Already too tired for this.


OK, I've had enough. Can I stop now?


teaching my first class as a professor in about 90 minutes, but a lot less #anxious about it than I expected to be! I know I know my stuff.


just opened my first paycheck as a professor and my jaw dropped. Even with 40% withheld/deducted, it seems like a lot of money to me!


Oops. I just dripped peanut butter on my #ADHD medication prescription. Inattentive much, you think?


First appt with new doctor and OMG I WON THE DOCTOR LOTTERY! This guy is awesome. So, so relieved!

It took a month before someone finally admitted that my new office is one of the most arctic. They recommended sneaking in a space heater.
