I think part of my brain is missing, or dried up, or something.
My short-term memory is horrible, and I often forget things that I try to recall quickly, like my phone number, or my kids' names, or which side is left and which is right. What shall become of me by the time I'm actually significantly aged? :scared:

3. That's what I call 'stress blanking'.
Mine got so bad that there for a while I would call my kids 'boy' or 'girl' if I had to get their attention in a hurry. :(

4. I have done similarly!
I once referred to my oldest son as "that one," because I could not remember his name! :rofl:
