    Never understood why people are so amazed at this. Like, great if you have no appointments that far out, just write this one down in your calendar, don’t plan anything else on that day.

    I’ve got ADD, and that still works most of the time.

      Appointments years in the future are meaningless, because fuck if I know whether something will come up that means I have to move into a different city or whatever.

      Sure I’ll write it down, but doing so feels ironic in that case

      I know its exaggeration but if my dentist can’t book me every 6 months i’d question their ability to take care of me as a patient. thats what I’m used to, and what I was taught was normal, so if I’m waiting over a year I’m gonna think thats a little suspicious

      It sucked when I didn’t have a smartphone and I had to make sure to remember to put the appointment in my calendar later.

      Now, it is just so simple.

      A lot of my friends legitimately don’t know how to use a calendar or just don’t do it if they do know. I try to plan a few weeks out and ask what they’re doing, “oh i don’t know”. I ask them if they can find out and then they never get back to me until a week before if they remember at all. I don’t understand it.
