I left my glasses (necessary for PC work) on a random desk and spent a couple of hours trying to figure where on earth they'd gone. I finally worked it out when I was walking past the stationery cupboard, which triggered the thought that the last time I was there I was looking for sellotape but had had to go to Sadie's desk for that...cue lightbulb moment and there they were, still with Sadie. Someone shared a while ago why going from one room to another can either make us forget what we were planning to do or trigger remembering something. |

That was me, I think. Liebling read it in New Scientist. I annoy her by calling it Nude Scientist. Every. Single. Time.

The Mighty Fleecy
I often retrace my steps when I’ve forgotten something I want to remember. It works 90% of the time

I unpacked my kit to run home from work and found 2 pairs of shorts. I was worried there was no top, but there was. Just thankful it wasnt no pairs of shorts

Walked past airing cupboard on way to shower and turned on the immersion heater. Found shower cap, as no time to wash hair. Turned on shower - no water. Turn off immersion heater and turn on shower pump. Get back in the shower and proceed to shampoo my shower cap.... |

Fragile Do Not Bend
Oh dear RH. I’ve had one of those mornings as well, I probably put on deodorant twice as I couldn’t be sure I’d put any on when I got out of the shower, and I had to check if my toothbrush was wet to be sure I’d brushed my teeth. |

I've done that with the toothbrush too FDNB (When your hair is waist length and you have 15 minutes to get from the shower to work, washing said hair is not an option ) |

You shampoo your toothbrush? this page gets weirder. I've only ever seen shower caps in hotels. I didn't know they were still a thing (says very short-haired person) |
