[QUOTE=Eureka]
Aparently, recently, while filling out an online application for a part-time job, I typed my parent’s home phone number in the phone number blank, rather than my cell phone.

I live 600 or so miles away. And I’ve been using my cell phone almost exclusively for the past 10 months. If you asked me my parent’s home number, I’d have to think really hard to come up with it.

I absent-mindedly typed the phone number my mother had in the early 70s as my home number on a job application not too long ago.

Or just that you wear them all the time, so they become such a normal part of your life that you don’t think about them most of the time.

Maybe this just comes down to a difference in the strength of our glasses. I’m so damn nearsighted without mine I know when I’m not wearing them.

My prescription is around -3, so I can see clearly for about one foot when I’m not wearing my glasses. But I pretty much have them on at every waking moment, so it’s easy to forget about them.

I lose stuff. I’ve always lost stuff, but it’s getting worse as I get older. I now keep a “My Lost List” so I don’t stess so much about what all it is I’m supposed to be looking for (or replacing). And yes, I write it on my upper arm, cuz, you know . . .

Getting back to the OP: that dishwasher soap wasn’t made in China, was it? If so, it could be deadly to your dogs!

So, I got up and went into the kitchen to do something, and saw the cat’s water bowl was low, so I filled that first.

Then I couldn’t remember what I got up to do in the first place, so I sat back down.

Then I remembered what it was, and went back into the kitchen to do it, and found out that I actually had done it after all.

Now I can’t remember what it was to tell the story right here.

I had something to post to this thread, I’ve remembered it about 7 different times but couldn’t post at that moment. Now I can’t remember what it was. I’m way too young to be this old. ::sigh::

Grandmother once told me she found her coat in the refrigerator and for two days was afraid to look in the closet.

Pfaugh, my mother has been doing that since he was in her thirties.

Nava, are you having problems remembering whether your mom was a man or a woman?

My mom used to call me by my sister’s name. I’m a guy, and I have a brother for crying out loud.

I was talking to a friend on my cell phone, when I suddenly realized that I didn’t have my phone in my pocket anymore. My friend asked me what was wrong, so I told him, via my cellphone of course, that I couldn’t find my phon… oooooh…
The glasses thing I can relate to as well. Yet another (admittedly trivial) reason I want to get Lasik done.
