Losing my mind.

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

At 5:00, I’m settling in to watch a rerun of Gilmore Girls. Grab my smokes, a snack, and a Pepsi from the fridge. Life’s good. 6:00, GG is over, and I’m like, “Oh, shit, I forgot to drink my Pepsi! Bet it sweated all over the damned side table; it’s gonna be all warm now; grumble, grumble…” Pick it up, it’s completely empty! I remember getting it out of the fridge and setting it down. I have absolutely no recollection of opening it or drinking any of it, which is particularly unusual because I’m very sensitive to the tingle of carbonated drinks, and tend to drink them infrequently, and very slowly. So the only conclusion is that I’m losing my marbles.

What ELSE might I be doing without my own knowledge, I wonder?
ETA: I remember the plot of the show, some of the commercials, even, and eating my snack and smoking, so I wasn’t just completely spacing it for that hour.

Oh. Well, try not to worry too much about not remembering that you drank an entire Pepsi.
You really do need to start worrying when you get the ‘walkin’ farts’.

Or so I’m told…

I take it that you live alone, and that no one else was in the house while GG was on? :slight_smile:

Hopefully you’ll remember starting a thread on the SDMB. :smiley:

I’m betting that you’ll find a full can of Pepsi sitting somewhere else in your house. I’ve done that before: grab something out of the frig (or whatever) and stop along the way to do something else, setting the other thing down and forgetting all about it until later.

I think the alien who has adopted your house liked the Pepsi. :eek:

Be afraid… be very afraid…

Well, I thought I did. Maybe I should investigate.
