Aunty Acid by Ged Backland for April 29, 2024

Never tell your problems to anyone- 20% don’t care and 80% are glad to have them

and THAT is a superpower.

I’m so good I forget that I even forgot!

That’s a talent.

What? I thought I was the only one who did that!

Sometimes when I’m absorbed in doing something that requires intense concentration, I may pass a mirror and resent that I am not enough alone.

Um, sorry I forgot what I was going to comment.

You better go see a Nuro-psychologist Aunty.

Walter Mitty invented this affliction.

Was I going to make a comment?

You and me both Auntie!!!

If only we could forget you as easily Aunty.

So can I.

I think a lot of us have that in common!!

Anyone remember the early Elvis heartbreak song “I forgot to remember to forget” ?

Oh yeah? Well I can…… wait….. what were we talking about?

I’m 57 and I seem to be developing Auntie Acid’s memory problem. Yesterday morning, I went to the fridge and got out some milk for the cereal but then found that the milk was already on it. I realised that I had put milk on the cereal and put it back in the fridge and then gone for a spoon for the cereal but somehow got side tracked and went back to the fridge and got milk for the cereal a second time!

Yup!!

Me too, Aunty!

And now you forgot not to brag.

Ditto Auntie! It’s called CRS. Can’t Remember Sh…er Stuff….Or CRAFT Disease Can’t Remember A Friggin Thing (you people know what the “F” actually stands for, right? )

wait, what was my name again…?

People will ask me about something that happened a long time ago, and I will say that I don’t even remember yesterday, so I probably don’t have a clue. In my defense, I have a friend or two who kind of like to live in the past. I don’t.

That’s nothing. I can forget what I’m doing Retroactively.
