Want to hear something funny?

I cannot, for the life of me, remember how old I am. I am not joking. It has been a problem for years. I can never remember if I'm, say, twenty, or twenty-one. I couldn't remember at 18/19 either (oh, I knew I was old enough for legal drinking at 19, but I couldn't remember if the drinking age was 18 or 19).


For example: The last two or three weeks, I've been telling people I am 20. It was recently pointed out to me that I have, in fact, not been 20 for the last four months.

Taxonomic classifications? Bernoulli's equation? Random and useless information? No problem. Ask me my age, however, and I am lost. My mind, she is falling apart even more quickly than I had anticipated.


Are there any little silly things that you guys forget? I'm not talking about normal things (though if I had a dollar for every time I'd misplaced my keys -- well, let's just say that Christmas shopping would have taken care of itself this year, and I'd be providing a round of bubble tea for my friendslist).

Are there any odd, random things that you misplace or forget or get confused? A quirk of mine: I can't say 'astronomer.' It comes out 'astromoner' every. time.


Oh my goodness, I am every stereotype ever.

Are there still stats you can rattle off? Like your social or your date of birth? I have found myself doing math from my DOB sometimes when I get the brainfuzz. I get the confoozleds on the age sometimes too.

Also, there are magic elves that live in my house and misplace my keys. Professionally. Oh and pens.

I just tried doing the 'adding the years' thing, and got myself rather confused, because math kept telling me that I was 22.

Only, it's not actually 2007 yet, is it? *loses*

Heee. I will be at the student office at school, and I will be ready to leave, then I will pat my pockets down and pause. Before I've even opened my mouth, I sometimes get: "You lost them again?"
