Executive dysfunction be like:

Me: Go to lunch with you on Tuesday? Oh, I can’t I’m busy on Tuesday. On Tuesday I have to send The Email.

Tuesday Morning:

Me: Okay! Gotta send The Email today.

Me: But first, breakfast and a little YouTube to get the day going.

Tuesday Noon:

Me: okay! Day has begun! But it’s lunchtime so I’d better get some lunch.

Tuesday 5 o’clock:

Me: it is now Too Late to send The Email

Logical brain: if you send it now anyway, they’ll see it in the morning.

Me: good point. I should write The Email

Me: *doesn’t write The Email*

Tuesday 11pm:

Me: Tuesday’s almost over! Gotta send That Email!

Me: *opens email, enters address and subject line*

Me: Whew! I started The Email, what an accomplishment! Bed time.

Me: *stressing about sending The Email for the rest of the night, gets no sleep* I’ll send it as soon as I wake up.

Wednesday 11pm:

Me: I have to send The Email.

Me: *opens email*

Me: *Closes email*

Me: *wakes up in a cold sweat at 3 am* I can’t believe I haven’t sent that email!

Me: *Opens laptop, sends email*

Me:

Me: >:( Why was that so hard????
