doing thing A
gets interrupted by thing B
thing C gets mentioned
thing A is now a landmine I will step on later in the day
Apparently the most brutal form of this feeling is experienced by people with dissociative fugue, where your head is basically temporarily wiped all of a sudden.
Trying to retrace my last steps until I remember
This is such a pain in my ass now that ive got a full blown family. Trying to retrace my steps to find the thing I out down 30 seconds ago. Except ive got a toddler hanging off my leg shouting daddy daddy and an annoyed wife in my way demanding to know where I had it last and that she cant believe I lost it and that I just had it so how can I not know where it is.
This is your chance: train the toddler to help you find stuff!
