Answer 1

i have a brian like a sieve.....doesnt hold a lot in it!!!!.......lol

Answer 2

I have a very good memory long term, but my sense of time passed is horrendous.

And I suffer blanks, where I temporarily (as in 20 seconds) can't remember things, like age, pin number, phone number.

And I often stop in the middle of a sentence and have no idea what I've just said.

:-) Funny, but can be embarrassing at times!

Answer 3

At the moment my memory is terrible. Think I'm getting old. I never know what day it is and I forget to do things all the time.

Answer 4

My memory is terrible. Has got worse since I had a baby, big time.

I'm sure it's to do with tiredness.

I now forget everything, conversations i've had with people, things i'm suppposed to do, peoples names.

At least once a day I worry about my memory xx

Answer 5

I quite often have memory slips however I never forget my age.

Answer 6

I have a poor memory for anything important and a fantastic memory for trivia and things I don't need to remember.

I wish it was the other way round.....

I often forget people's names within minutes of meeting them but could tell you everything else they told me about themselves

Answer 7

I'm old enough now to have selected memory. I choose what I want to remember & disregard the the rest as needed :)

Answer 8

All the time. Usually I forget where I put my car keys. I am only 30 and I have memory loss of someone with Alzheimer's.

Answer 9

What memory? I can't remember anything for cryin' out loud!

I have to write everything down, keep reminders in my Outlook calendar, and always have to ask "What did I just say?" :-\

Answer 10

Memory not as good as it was say, some thirty years ago. But, it will have to do since I do not know what I forgot today alone.

Answer 11

I always tend to remember the useless information.

I've forgotton my phone number. Just happened a few weeks ago, i was like oh crap, what is it?

then sadly i forgot it a few days later. AGAIN
