This pretty much sums up what happens to my memory and any logical thinking/rational process that most people use to function effectively on a daily basis:

Here are a few of the things that have slipped through the cracks since October. Actually, all of these have happened in the past 3-4 months.
So, I guess I should say, if I have done/do anything to offend/forget/misplace anything that correlates to you in any way, well, you are running along the same lines as the rest of my life.
Sorry, there is no fixing this brain. I would say 'until at least July', but I know better. Having a baby attached to me every 2 hours for months on end just makes for a new kind of crazy.
But I still love you all. Promise :)
- Got a speeding ticket because I forgot that I was still in American Fork city (by about 2 blocks) and not Pleasant Grove.
- Forgot about said ticket until I got around the cleaning out all of the stale Goldfish crackers out of the family vehicle from the vacation we took in OCTOBER. The fine went up $50.
- Forgot about said ticket, again, until I got a suspension notice from the DMV. This time I called the court to find out that my fine went up $100 and I have a warrant that has been issued for me.
- Forgot to buy diapers until we were down to 1, sometimes 0.
- Realized once I got to school that I had put my toothbrush in my pocket. In my defense, at least I remembered to brush them.
- Lets not even get into the 571482193 times I have lost/misplaced my cell phone which is not helped by the fact that I have it on silent 90% of the time.
- It wasn't until everybody in my house was out of clean underpants that I realized I hadn't done laundry for a week and a half.
- I somehow managed to turn off the voicemail notification on my phone and so I never know when I have messages. Last time I was able to check them, I had 53.
- Had an overdue library book. By 2 1/2 months. My fine was $9.00. I didn't even get to finish the book.
- I don't want to even give the specifics of all of the scheduling screw-ups I have made with school this semester. Lets just say, that in the last 2 weeks, I have thoroughly ruined my entire semester worth of work.
- I found 7 months worth of "task cards" for Taylie's preschool that I never sent back. They were completed, I just filed them instead of sticking them in her backpack. Thank goodness her teachers totally get pregnancy brain and they sent her home with all 7 prizes in the same day.
- Totally forgot to send in the renewal for our health insurance. Twice.
So, I guess I should say, if I have done/do anything to offend/forget/misplace anything that correlates to you in any way, well, you are running along the same lines as the rest of my life.
