I hate forgetting things.


I forgot to mop the front of the store tonight and its all I can think about. I hate forgetting something that I told myself earlier, DO NOT FORGET THIS. I will worry about this all night haha.

What is something you always forget?

I hate that feeling in the workplace when you forgot to do something. It makes you wonder if you'll be in trouble for it when you get back. I've had that feeling so many times over the years.

Exactly! Anxious the entire time.

WHY DID I COME IN THIS ROOM?

I do this so often its embarrassing. I'll walk into the kitchen to get a garbage bag, completely forget thats the purpose and I'll just start looking for a snack and making something to drink.

So you forgot a boring chore in favor of enjoying some yummy food and drink, and that is a bad thing, because . . . ?

Forgetting is not always bad. Forgetting the cherished lover who completely betrayed you is a good thing! Forgetting the cowardly loser buttcracks who tried to bully you in school is a good thing! Forgetting the insane, dysfunctional lessons your parents may have tried to teach you is a good thing! Forgetting all the lies you have been told about how little you matter is a VERY good thing.

Intoxicants, sex and video games are so popular because our species probably values forgetting more than remembering and acknowledging. thewaitress, I respect you tremendously for being so conscientious. I just wanted to remind you that there can also be value in letting go. Just don’t do it when people whom you value are counting on you😁. And I know that you do not!
