My wife has this thing, it's called ADHD.

Do you guys know what this is?

It's not ADD, by the way.

That one's different.

That's the one you diagnose yourself.

That's where people are like, Oh, sorry, I tuned out of your story.

I have ADD.

No, you suck.

You're addicted to your phone.

You need to take responsibility.

ADHD, that one's a little more intense, all right?

She had to go to a hospital to get that H.

Now, when she went to the doctor,

the doctor was like, you have what's called ADHD.

And she was like, what?

And he was like, this is the third time I told you.

Please stop coming back here.

Now, if you don't know what ADHD is, you probably knew someone in school who had it.

Alright?

ADHD kids, they were always like the weird kid in class.

Alright?

The one that does this shit.

The weird kid.

You know, not the quiet one, not the quiet emo that's to themselves weird.

No. weird one.

The one who sat next to the emo kid and asked them questions.

Like so, is black your favorite color?

You wear it all the time.

You wore that black hoodie last Wednesday and on Friday.

Do you wear eyeliner on the weekends?

You're always in eyeliner.

I noticed that it's also black.

Did you know black is the absence of color?

I have a hoodie as well that's black but it's reversible with the blue.

Technically that's one color and no color.

That's how they fucking talk, by the way.

I would cut myself too.

Now, people with ADHD, they get hyper-focused and easily distracted at the exact same time.

So that means they are really good at starting projects Did you feel how unsatisfying that was?

That was a polite way of saying they're good at making a mess in my living room all the time

Because what happens is is she will get started on something

and then she sees movement So then she starts doing whatever this thing is

and then a sound goes off So then she's doing whatever

that and then her phone happens and those so that it's like it's like Living with a Roomba,

you know, it's just you follow the trail of broken dreams until she's stuck in the corner somewhere

And there's just there's just things it just it looks like Etsy took a shit in our house.

It's just miscellaneous random things But she has good intentions,

and I guess that that counts for something.

So this is what she'll do.

She'll say something like, okay, I'm gonna clean.

And then she will start the vacuum,

and she'll follow that until it hits the coffee table.

Which wobbles, because she hit her head.

She doesn't remember.

So the coffee table wobbles, and she goes, Oh, no, that's uneven.

So she will begin to disassemble the coffee table,

but she only takes apart the two legs that are nearest to her, all right?

So the table becomes lopsided, oblivious to the very full coffee mug that comes sliding down onto the carpet.

Now there's a stain.

This is cleaning, by the way.

Don't forget.

And she goes, oh no, there's a stain.

I should probably get a paper towel to clean that up.

So she goes over to the kitchen to grab a paper towel.

She's in a completely different room now, okay? That room is done.

It's over, all right?

It's a distant memory at this point.

Box it up.

It doesn't matter.

And she goes, okay, what will I do in the kitchen today?

My goodness.

The world is my oyster with this kitchen.

I could do anything.

Maybe I'll start a project.

I'll bake a pie from scratch.

That's what I should do.

Should be a very small project.

I should be hungry in about 8 to 10 hours.

I will build a pie.

Oh, it looks like we're all out of paper towels.

I'm gonna go to the store.

That's what I'll do.

I'm just gonna head out and I'll go right to the store.

Oh, wait, what's going on with the vacuum?

What happened over here?

It's like she becomes a detective who discovers her own crime scene.

She's like, I've never seen the table like this.

What happened with the vacuum?

Why is this going on?

I'm like, bitch, you're the murderer.

What are you talking about?

And then she rediscovers the stain and goes, oh, that's right, the coffee, because of the stain.

I went to go get paper towels, but we're out of paper towels.

I need to blot this.

So she'll take her shirt off and start to blot the stain.

Literally, I come in from the next room, the vacuum's running, my table's broken, she's naked, a baby's crying, we don't have kids.

I'm I'm like, what the fuck is going on?

And she goes, I was gonna do a load of laundry.

And then I don't see her for four days and three nights.

100

She does meth, I think.

101

I don't know my wife.

102

She collects rocks.

103

I do not care if they identify as crystals.

104

They are rocks.

105

They are everywhere, bro.

106

They're all over our home.

107

They're on the window sills, and in the drawers, on the toilet seat.

108

We live in a quarry.

109

We live outside.

110

We're homeless, I think.

111

I don't know.

112

And she won't let me get rid of them because she claims that they have powers.

113

highlighted by the planets, the stars, and the Mercury's and Venus's anus or whatever.

114

I try to throw them out and she's like, you don't even know what they're doing for you.

115

Don't you feel so protected?

116

I was like, yeah, if we get a slingshot, we're in business business.

117

All we have is ammo right now.

118

We have nothing.

119

Every day she gets a new rock.

120

Every single day she gets a new one because there's this little meditation guru center spa, find your, heal your clitoris chakra, whatever thing.

121

Every day she goes there and right when she walks in, the clerk, he pops up and goes, My customer." And then...

122

And then he sells her some rock that he found outside on his smoke break, probably.

123

And while he's selling it, he winks at me.

124

I'm like, you're a piece of shit.

125

You know she has a problem.

126

And when she gets outside the store,

127

she just goes, Oh, I just feel so grounded.

128

I'm like, yeah, babe, you got a pocket full of rocks right now.

129

If you were a corpse, you would sink.

130

What are you, insane?

131

That's physics.

132

One day we were on a walk outside or at home and we stumble upon this well, okay?

133

It's a very shallow well.

134

It's about two to three feet.

135

It's very shallow.

136

I could get out of it.

137

Okay, don't all laugh. That hurts.

138

We stumble upon this well, and at the bottom of this well, there is a squirrel that's hanging at the bottom of this well, okay?

139

And here's how I react whenever I see a squirrel.

140

It's a squirrel.

141

My wife has a very different...

142

spiritual...

143

moment.

144

I don't know why.

145

I don't know her connection to the squirrel.

146

I don't know if it's because, like, they're equally as twitchy.

147

I don't know...

148

I feel like they're talking shit about me.

149

I don't know.

150

So she sees the squirrel and she goes, babe, quick.

151

Lend me your shoe.

152

I will lower it down by the laces and we'll hoist them up like it's a squirrel elevator.

153

I was like, I love that you think just because we lower a shoe down there,

154

a squirrel will willingly get in it and leave with us like we are his family.

155

And she goes, you're right, we should build a ladder so he can leave on his own terms.

156

And I was like, that's not at all what I said.

157

So I go about my adult life.

158

I come home later to discover my wife is sitting in the middle of the living room.

159

The glue gun is on. So I'm too late.

160

And what she's done is she has taken two of my shoelaces and she laid them out vertically.

161

And then she hot glued popsicle sticks.

162

We did not have popsicle sticks, by the way.

163

We had a box of popsicles.

164

Can you guess what happened next?

165

This chick has got brain freeze and purple lips and is doing arts and crafts in my living room.

166

I'm like, whose toddler am I babysitting right now?

167

With my laptop open to a Google search that says, how tall are squirrels?

168

I was like, really?

169

For squirrels you say tall?

170

So, she collects the ladder just like so.

171

We're heading back to the well.

172

My shoes are much looser." And just before she releases I notice that there is a note attached.

173

And I was like, hey babe,

174

is that a note for the squirrel?

175

And she goes, no, that's so people read it and know not to remove the ladder. And I was relieved.

176

Because I needed to know how far on the spectrum of this she was.

177

And so she takes the ladder in very dramatic fashion.

178

She unfurls and fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.

179

That's a pretty good ladder.

180

I don't know what the sound they make, but that's...

181

Whatever, tickle your fancy.

182

Rikki-tikki-tikki!

183

Ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-ho-pah!

184

She unfurls the ladder, and I swear to God,

185

the squirrel looked at the ladder and just got out on his own.

186

And she goes, it worked.

187

I'm going to knit a scarf.

188

And that is my whole life.

189

Every day is that day, all right?

190

I live with a make-a-wish kid all the time.

191

So I'm just like, all right, let's follow your dreams, I guess.

192

We'll see what happens.

193

Now, people who stutter, we tend to do it more when we're feeling nervous or agitated, frustrated, overwhelmed.

194

And there was one particular day where both mine and my wife's issues,

195

my stutter and But her ADHD came together for one beautiful, awful storm.

196

I came home from shows.

197

It had just been an exhausting day.

198

And very lovingly, my wife noticed.

199

So she asked.

200

She goes, hey babe, what's the matter?

201

And what I said at the time was, it's nothing.

202

It's just today I'm feeling very stressed.

203

But at the time that I said it, I stuttered on the word stressed,

204

so it sounded like st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st-st.

205

This chick started dancing...

206

She was like, that was a sick beat, babe.

207

I was like, yeah, we should start a band and not finish it.
