this was weird - something mental

Post Reply New Topic

I'm in one room about to smoke a cigarette while my daughter is in the kitchen eating her breakfast. I asked her if she'd like some cereal. I took off my glasses instead of taking the cigarette out of my mouth. It wasn't lit yet.

let the berating commence.

I have had similar things happen to me. I meant to do one thing, and unwittingly did something else.

i think i've done things of that nature, before....but not specific examples come to mind.

I do that all the time, very absent minded. I've never done anything like my dad though. Sitting in the kitchen once at the table probably reading or doing homework. He comes in and starts pooring a glass of milk, at the counter next to the fridge, a cat we had jumps up cause it wanted milk (in the half dozen cats i've had since being a kid, this was the only cat that actually liked milk).

My dad takes a drink of the milk, sets the glass down. Picks up the gallon of milk and places it on the floor, then picks up the cat and puts it in the fridge and closed it and began to walk away.

All I can say is i'm glad I was there, and my dad wasnt going after something in the freezer or checking something from the oven.

Last week, I made a couple sandwiches. Instead of putting them in the microwave, I put them in the fridge... haha.

Several years ago (I was probably 10), I spent around twenty minutes looking for my glasses. I was wearing them.

Once I turned my wrist to look at my watch and forgot that I was holding my drink at the time. My family had the habit of just throwing dirty clothes downstairs near the laundry room. One day I was carrying a fork and a dirty shirt. I threw the fork downstairs and put the shirt in the fridge.

haha ive done stuff like that. XD or accidentally thrown away something i was eating and kept the wrapper X/

that cat story is amazing. i am SO glad you were there!

with my advancing years (granted, I'm only 36), I'm becoming more and more aware of my aging. I don't see any wrinkles yet but have some gray hair. I swear, I'm getting more and more every day. I'm just worried that stuff like this might be a warning sign of some kind - a harbinger of Alzheimer's.

i doubt so. some people start LOSING their hair at 18. it is most likely just stress. or a genetic predisposition.

I think it has more to do with the sense of body placement-Proprioceptive
Signals get crossed-hilarity ensues

I do experience migraines...

I've thrown to the garbage can many things which were brand new.
And no way to get them back.

Meanwhile still holding the garbage things of course.

I've also locked myself out a few times.
That's one of the reasons I used to pray to the firemen and anyone who is good at climbing

There were some hilarious examples of this on a pregnancy board from NT (probably) mother-to-bes last time I was pregnant. :p
Like putting
Cheese block in dishwasher
Phone AND/OR charger in the fridge
Socks in the dishwasher and many more. :p

My own one is getting more and more stressed while on the mobile to my mum. Finally she asked me what was upsetting me. I told her that I had been looking for something for the whole conversation and I had looked everywhere for it and couldn't find it. (I had been pulling up cushions and all!) "What?" She asked." - "My PHONE!" I told her. There was a long pause while she tried to figure out how to tell me the obvious... :p
