I'm sorry, what?

Aprosexia - An abnormal inability to pay attention, characterized by near-complete indifference to everything. Usually blamed on ADD these days

Opposite is hyperprosexia, meaning to concentrate on one thing to the exclusion of everything else; and,

paraprosexia, meaning the inability to pay attention to any one thing (a state of constant distraction).

I fear that I suffer from the latter. I blame cats, the internet and Nutrasweet. It isn't MY fault! :P

It was probably because the internet was dicey on board the ship. Sigh.

That's what I thought ;) No worries!

P.S. I can't say anything on the subject, anyway, given I missed posting on Friday altogether, last week...:P

So, thanks for posting!

Thanks! I've been trying to be conscientious about it. :D
