Your library asks to see a book you've renewed "too many times" and you realise you've had it out for two years. And it only felt like five months. To make matters worse, you've only read the first page. Several times.

You forget what else you were going to type on this thread. :rolleyes:

You have four packs of cigarettes open, don't remember opening them, and CAN NOT find the lighter....

When you walk out of a store you try very hard to remember if you paid for everything you have with you. Because you are so out if it sometimes that you are afraid you might accidentally steal something.

...When you try to do the dishes and somehow end up eating a bowl of pudding.

...when you find your missing roll of duct tape in the silverware drawer.

...When you find your missing pad of sticky notes in the bathroom sink.

...When you finally DO do the dishes intending on doing only the ones you need to cook with, and end up doing ALL of them because dishes that's why.

...When you finish this and suddenly realize you're missing two out of three black plastic bowls.....

SCAVENGER HUNT!!! Yay....?

When you're walking down the street one moment, and suddenly find yourself splat on the sidewalk with your knee scraped like a kid, but you don't have balance problems and or any health problems that would make you fall, and you look around to see if you tripped over something and there's nothing there. And you can't recall what you were doing before you went splat.

dnp, I don't fall, but I do end up being somewhere and not remember going there... hope your knee is ok.

 

[dnp]

Thanks, it has happened a couple of times in the past. There's just a scar and scar tissue now. =)

One more physical reminder... sometimes good, sometimes bad, happy to hear it wasn't bad...

 

[Knak]

You panic because you can't find something because it is invisible when are looking at it

When you've decided to unwind and have a bath and next thing you're at a little grocery store, wondering all the possible questions. Finally it hits you're in a store and should buy something, so you wrack your brain for what you could possibly need. Get out store to realize its now super dark and you've taken the dog with you....get home to realize you didn't need bread or milk, you needed dish soap.

Or when your partner gets home from work and asks what you did all day. You search your brain for what you actually did but draw a blank so you just make up a whole bunch of things....
