I guess I'd like to feel like I'm not the only one. I've known people who can't wear watches because they just won't keep time and that is no different, really, from blowing out lightbulbs. So, is anyone willing to share their experiences so I can feel like i have some company? My friend who also has DID never has things like this happen to her and so she teases me sometimes, in a most affectionate way, of course. I used to mess up my computers all the time, too, but since getting VISTA as my operating system, I've been good and other people have had a lot of trouble. Maybe this seems trivial, but, am I alone in this?

I cant keep cell phones for more than three months without the battery becoming drained...and yes, I follow what the manufacturer says about letting the phone get to the last bar. I have to replace batteries frequently.
