There was something that was in my head, and it seems to be gone now. I think it was a really good idea to write about.
I got the idea when I was running this morning. And when it popped into my head, I was like, that it something I should write about today. And I was confident that I could retain the idea…
Not really, and now I have to come up with something new.
So… I forget things now.
The first way to look at this is that I am over 40, and it really isn’t that uncommon for people of this age to start to have small lapses of short term memory. And that is the easy way to go, following that line of logic that just about everyone does.
I like to think I now have more shit to deal with, and there is just so much that a person can be expected to remember. When I was in my 20’s and didn’t do shit, sure, I remembered everything. Now that I am 40, with a wife, kid, career, finances, friends, and a host of other things pulling at me, sure I forget things.
Sure, I threw something away last night, then immediately asked my wife where was that thing I wanted to throw away. That’s just want happens to people who get shit done.
As long as I don’t forget my anniversary.
