Tricking myself to clean II: While I am waiting for things to microwave (you know how boring that two minutes of waiting time could be), I unload the dishes/load dirty dishes. Once I get started and make solid progress, I am much more inclined to finish the cleaning task.

I'd really welcome some way to deal with queuing at the supermarket or putting fuel in the car.

@jennyadams @adhdasiangirl here are a million little Sherlock-like puzzles to solve. "I wonder why that guy is getting only broccoli and pop-tarts" or "The underground gas tanks must be THERE, which isn't where the fire extinguishers point, so I wonder what happens when..."

The boring thing is when you are stuck somewhere where those are all used up. At home, for a long time anywhere, bland dr office, etc.

@davidr

Ooo, thank you. Sherlock, I do like Sherlock.

Drs office tho? It's a grotto. Get up, walk about, read the info posters on the wall, think vicious thoughts about anyone called in before you are, decide which disease they've all got...

@jennyadams And endure the silently-judging eyes of the receptionists and other "guests"?

I do often spend a large amount of time trying to sneakily shut off the TV, tho.

@jennyadams I probably would listen to a bit of audiobook or podcast. Double as helping me to filter out some of the noises.
