Memory

Does anyone else have as bad a short term memory as me? 8O

I struggle to remember what I did yesterday!...Forgot which locker I put my gym stuff in yesterday and had to try each one, keep leaving the hot water on and walk into rooms at least twice daily wondering what on earth I'm doing in there. :?

I think an Autumn detox is looming. :lol:
 
You are definitely not alone....

Similar to you - I will walk into a room knowing what I'm looking for, by the time I'm in the room...***ZAP*** gone... I then have to backtrack to where I had the original thought just to see if that stirs up some memories :lol:

I went through a stage of leaving the house, locking the door, getting to the end of the 10 ft path and thinking, sh*t I need to lock the door, go back and yup, it's locked.... most times I've done this.... 3 times in one attempt to leave :oops:

My favourite though is putting something down, walking away and 30 seconds later, its lost for ever...:lol: (Though I usually say "Who's moved it..!!!" "someone just moved it" "They must have" "I haven't touched it") :lol:

It get's worse when someone says, "where did you leave it?" Stoooopid question...If I knew that it wouldn't be lost :spank: :lol:

Nothing like blaming everyone else for your own memory loss:lol:
 
I find my long term memory is really good, I can remember names, numbers, places etc with ease... but trying to write my review of Global was sooooo hard! I couldn't even remember any of the dj's I saw on the Friday!! I had to get the flyer out and try and find the ones I'd seen! Scary!
 
I do!

For example, if I don't put my appointments into my phone or computer, I'll completely forget about them. When I meet people I have to really really concentrate initially in order to remember their names 10 minutes later (or else ask again).

Not sure about this detox business though... :lol:

I have to do this....:oops: I've also started keeping lists everywhere, trouble is remembering where the list is :lol:
 
I've never ever ever been able to remember names - it's embarrasing - I've even been known to not be able to recall my best friends names for a few minutes. Hence why I NEVER introduce a group of people to a new person, even if they are all my very good friends, because I'll forget 8O It makes me a rude bastard, but it's better than me going 'erm, oh, god, erm, this is, erm, gosh' and then my mother having to say 'Lucinda' :lol:
 
sorry.... very childish to poke fun at a name... It's just a name I don't hear often and I find it mildly (childishly) amusing....:oops:

The only other Lucinda I've heard of is the wife of the late (r.i.p.) Joe Strummer (from The Clash).....

Na Harm meant - I'll grow up one day...;)
