Does anyone know how to improve short term memory? I have the biggest problem in the world keeping track of what's going on at the current moment when there is more than one thing or more than one conversation going on. Like ill be talking to one person then get interrupted or distracted by something else and totally forget to get back to the first person I was talking to! For example I'm laying in bed after midnight and a conversation I was having with a friend at playgroup comes to mind and I realize that I meant to respond to what she was saying but I never did! I don't even remember how I got distracted from her but now I'm feeling like an idiot and an ass for accidentally blowing off what she said! Its not like it was an extremely important conversation or anything but I want my friends to know that I DO pay attention to what they are Saying to me!!! Its like really bothering me now lol. The same. Hung happened at tball one night with one of the parents, she asked me something then I got distracted by one of the kids and I never ended up answering her, then realized it the next day and felt horrible! I dont even know if this would even be considered a `memory` issue or what. Maybe I'm ADD....anyhow if there are spelling or typing errors its because I'm typing on My phone,and because its past bedtime! I just had the random thought and felt the need to express it as though I had someone here to tell about it to. I'm off to dreamworld to let this brain rest!

I told Stephanie one day that I thought I was the rudest person because I always interrupt people and forget to say thank you, etc. and she told me that she thought SHE was the rudest cuz she was always doing this. Well, I know I do it but I've never noticed her doing it but AGAIN, we've all had similiar thoughts. If I think someone may have felt slighted by my not answering them then I would just text or email them that I was sorry I got distracted but what I was going to say was ..this..Sometimes if I approach a problem head on then I can quit worrying aboout it. That person isn't going to mind (or think your crazy) that you care so much for their friendship that you wanted to make sure they didn't feel slighted. That's just NICE. ;)
