FABULOUS FORGETFULNESS
I thought I’d write something about forgetfulness...but sadly I forgot what I was going to say. Haha.
Do you find that with time you are increasingly more forgetful? I sure do. I think technology is part of the problem. Ok, maybe age has a part to play too. Technology has spoiled me though. When I was a kid, I had to actually remember something I planned to do in the future. Eventually I had to start writing things down and making a list. Now I just put it in my iPhone and it reminds me. Awfully nice of my iPhone to do that for me.
I have a great app called “Alarmed” and I’d be lost without it. Either lost or possibly standing in the middle of the grocery store wondering where I was supposed to go next. If there’s anything I need to do, I put it in my app. Here’s the sad part. Half the time I forget what it is I’m going to put in the phone before I get to the phone. It’s about a 1/2 minute interval from my mind to the phone and I still forget? So I guess I need a mind-reading app that reads only my thoughts on what I need to be reminded of. Then, the second I think of something, this magical app puts it in my phone before I forget it. Now that would be great.
My other problem is that I have way too many reminders in my phone. They go off now about every hour with a new one. So now I'm so accustomed to them going off that I ignore them. My "Alarmed" app always has a bunch of numbers showing on the outside. Like '12' reminders waiting for me. Then I forget to look at them. So, I'm thinking it's time to go back to the paper list that I can see. It feels nice to scratch something off a list anyway. I like seeing that line through something as opposed to checking it off the phone and it disappearing.
So, why did I title this entry Fabulous Forgetfulness? Well, I don’t remember. I guess there’s some things that might be fabulous to forget. You know, like.......dang it......I forgot.
