Kind of like confused or lost alot of the time. Someone will say hey etc. and your mind is on something else. Plus I tend to "assume" things for example what happen today. I was using my phone GPS to find some Circle rd. but it pulled up Ave. (I assumed the Circle address was wrong) So I took my dad 30+min. to the Ave. address which was wrong and dad asked "Why didn't you say hey the Circle wouldn't come up on the GPS? I just "Assumed" it was Ave. I tend to assume alot. :-) Does this stuff sound familiar to anyone?

Oh yes. Sometimes my sight goes out of focus when this happens. I won't even really be thinking about anything. It's weird.

Yeah, I tend to be "spacy" a lot of the time -- lost in my mind. (Also a bit scatterbrained, though I can focus when I need to). I've also noticed that I tend to unconsciously assume that people know what I know. Sort of like the information in my brain is "global" and obvious to all, and anyone knows whatever without my telling them (even though consciously I know better). Maybe a theory of mind thing?
