I'm currently doing a training course on working memory to compensate for some of my LD stuff. Because working memory deals with sensory and short term memory, it is requested that I do this in a setting that has minimal distractions. Cool. I usually just do it mid-day when the rest of the family is at work. Unfortunately that didn't happen today and I spent a lot of my evening playing tech support since my laptop has the primary archive of the old computer. So it is 10:30 and with the program taking about an hour I can't delay it any more. I boot it up and within five minutes my sister comes in and starts playing Mario Party with a group of friends. I push through resulting in some bad scores; not helped by the fact that three times they completely forgot I was doing it and would talk to me, "Could you grab me a soda?" type junk. And about half an hour after I finish they leave. If only I wasn't broke and could get some good sound cancellation headphones like I want.
LD is short for Learning Disability. From a medical standpoint I am what you would call "stupid" EDIT: My bad. I got a bit mixed up. I'm not stupid, I'm a moron
Wow, it would be dangerous to have you as a reporter then. I will gladly take his place. Naw man Im just joking. Mario Party, huh?
I was trying to find an article to get at what I meant but it is burred under people who don't really know what they are talking about and people being politically correct. I guess I should of just said ******ed instead of trying to place a degree on it. Oddly enough Wikipedia was the most helpful that I was able to find quickly, I thought for sure that would have been dismantled by random people that might take offense to it.
