Should Have Thought of this Years Ago

We all know that it's a bad idea to go to the grocery store while hungry. I've discovered the solution, though– with enough sleep deprivation, I get very task-focused as my executive function gets out of whack. I become incapable of purchasing anything not already written on my list.

On the downside, if the list is insufficiently specific, problems ensue. I had "breakfast cereal" written on there, and I spent a good five minutes in the cereal aisle, unable to decide which cereal I should purchase.

1 I have that problem a lot.  The cereal aisle is just too freaking good.

2 If you "only" spent 5 min in the aisle, I'd say that was very good, I've been known to spend much longer!
