I'm so absent-minded. Wait, what was I talking about?

I've come up with so many great ideas for blog posts this week.

Each time, I didn't have a pen with me, and didn't think to leave myself a voice memo. Besides, the idea was so great that I wouldn't forget it anyway. Honestly, I mean, really.

Problem is, I've always been incredibly absent-minded. Back in high school, I used to go into the kitchen to get something, open the fridge, and stare, not remembering what I was looking for. All. The. Time. I would forget what I was talking about mid-sentence, and just trail off.

I'm getting older, so it's getting worse. I sometimes blame it on my brain getting full and there being no more room for stuff.

Sometimes, I will watch a show and be so distracted that I don't remember it after the fact. I've watched movies and TV shows before where I've felt as if it was vaguely familiar, but I couldn't quite place it.

Despite being aware that I have been forgetting all these great blog post ideas, I still forget to jot them down when I think of them.

There's gotta be a better way.
