What Are You Most Likely To Forget?
November 7th 2007 21:07
Ask me where my wallet and car keys are though - and you'd have me on toast 7 out of 10 days.
I'm getting better . . . but only through a rigid training regime instigated by my wife - who was tiring of arriving late to just about everything because I'd put the keys in a 'safe place'.
It would frustrate the living daylights out the whole family, which started to resemble a Sherpa expeditionary party from time to time.
So shoot me!
Holistically - I'm proud of my record when it comes to earmarking dates to pay insurance, rego, phone and electricity bills - I'm even vigilant when it comes to remembering to get the car serviced - if only I could find my keys to get the damned thing out of the garage . . . .

It's almost as though you are peeking into my mind lately with the questions you've asked.
I'm having one of those mornings where I am forgetting all the simple things, so everything is taking me longer.
I open a new window (a computer one, the rain is too heavy for a real one) and forget what I need to do. So, I sit, try and wait for a clue, wait a bit more, then realise it's not coming yet so I have to do something else....
Hmmmmm

Blond/e mornings happen to us all from time to time.
Funny thing, is those morning's seem to be becoming more and more frequent lately. Doh!

I forget to eat.........but then, when I remember, I make up for my forgetfulness by over-eating. Vicious circle and very unhealthy!

And I always keep keys, etc in exactly the same place.
I'm usually good with names and facts, but statistics I have to write down if it's important or for work or whatever, because numbers sometimes get mixed up in my head.

PS Please don't think I'm a pedantic freak. I'm not really!

Did I spell it wrong that time? I usually do.

..MNG...now you've put me off!!
I was about to post something on an article I just read, in the National Geographic, on memory!!!
Now EVERYONE..well...two people maybe three if I am lucky with visitors in my neck of the electronic woods..will think I am copying you!!
However, as a wee mite, I used to love watching The Nutty Professor, (the REAL one, Jerry Lewis!), and loved how he forgot things...because I realized I couldn't forget anything!!!
I used to be the arbiter in family arguments because I could remember exactly what everyone said....I should have become a lawyer..
Anyhoo...no problem with that these days...for now I have to write down what I do each day, for tomorrow, it will be gone!
The wages of sin....a crumbling frontal lobe or two!!
cheers

If you see any of my daughter's phones - and I mean any of them - anywhere - feel free to have a garage sale.
Yep - you're not alone.
Thanks for dropping by

Busy people that we are - I can completely understand.
I've sometimes been so involved with my own world that by the time I realise its lunch or dinner it's sometimes simply easier to chill til breakfast.
Not good.

Consistency in ethos is a quality. Don't ever apologise for that.
Blessed are the list makers . . . .

I wouldn't worry about doing the whole National Geographic post thing buddy - besides, if anyone pulls punches you could justifyably use the "frontal lobe" defence.
Cheers champ - hope you're enjoying the downey mist in your neck of the woods.
