Absent-Minded Guy

The overhasty mind gets cluttered often losing concentration, not doing chores or things rationally, but overloading itself with unneccesary thinking; it happens to me sometime, leaving the car key inside the ignation! Imagine my grumpy mood... I get very skittish and to get that out, it'll take a sleight of hand! Once I made a delicious barbacue chicken, and left it on the grill on low heat, because I liked it well-done; I went back and my yummy bird was gone... the hungry sky-larks snatched it away, ate everything, but left the bloody bones! Absent-minded guy, how can you slacken on attending the most important things? Sometimes you slip and shuffling there's a chance you'll lose control... that's when trouble comes in! When was the last time you scrambled off a ladder, and landed into the coldest water of a pool? All the kids watching...surely thought it was cool! Another way of saving lots of money is not excessive frugality, absent-minded guy! Get rid of the parsimony and allow yourself to spend it wisely, not forgetting to check the balance in your checkbook...before going on a shopping-spree! Absent-minded guy, be attentive and be aware of forgetfulness!
