Don't get old and forgetful (if you remember to do so)
« on: March 11, 2018, 12:21:17 PM »
Sitting in front of the computer this morning, I kept thinking "I'm forgetting something."  Finally, it hit me "  ..... the monthly Moto Guzzi breakfast at Mike's Place in Kent, OH.  Gotta rush .... it's 9:30, but if I hurry .......

Then I noticed the computer clock .... forgot about the time change.

So guys,did I miss anything important this morning?

I went but I forgot what we did.

Nine chances out of ten that the other old forgetful toots that were there didn't even remember my showing up, you watch ....

Too late with the advice.  Left my car at the shop this morning for wheel alignment.  They brought me back home.  About four hours later they call and tell me the car is ready.  Soooooo, I start getting ready to have my wife drive me to the shop.  Hmmm, can't find my car keys, where did I put those keys?, dang it, what did I do with them?  Dooohhhhhhh.

I've looked for my sunglasses for ages before I realized they were pushed up on my head, over my cap .... And I wasn't even old!

I really have to take a little time to remember some things. I blame music...70% of my brain is filled with song lyrics.
