I Once Dated a Writer

This explains me. I forget so many things that I need to do, that I need to remember, ie appointments and chores and watering the garden, but I remember almost every story I’ve ever been told. I remember exact words of conversations from 20+ years ago, but forget what I just talked about with someone on the phone. I remember what my husband looked like and what he was wearing the first time we met, but I can’t remember what I wore yesterday. I forget to eat and forget to cook…

I’m lucky my husband understands and unlucky that he remembers less than I do. I keep telling him he’s a writer at heart.
