You will find it to your benefit to turn down such interruptions. Your mom should understand.
Nah in this case it was my choice. I needed that list of advice she was giving me and I don't like using paper (I lose paper too easily but my phone is always with me). But you're right, it doesn't take much to throw me off. Just the nature of the beast we all get to deal with I guess.

I just can't get past how convinced I was that the guy had a five dollar bill. I had absolutely no doubt in my mind that that's what it was. Put the $20 in the $5 spot. Even when I found the mistake I said it was because I saw the $5 he had in his bundle of money, to which he said he didn't have any. My brain completely invented a five dollar bill.

What Happened: 3/6/14 I was leaning in to pick my phone off the floor of my car and hit my head on the door frame. No immediate problems but I woke up the following day with blurred vision, nausea, fogginess and memory issues. Headaches came the next day along with speech problems. CT scan was clear. Took a few weeks off work. Went back for half days for two weeks.
Then: 4/14/14 While still recovering from the first concussion I hit my head on the edge of my desk. Immediate headache, nausea and blurred vision. Doctor referred me to a neurologist who prescribed physical therapy for my neck, as I get incredibly stiff/sore necks daily which helps to bring on the headaches. Doctor also referred me to a counselor, who is helping me to cope with the anxiety and panic that has come up in my post concussion world. I deal with severe sensory problems and the frequent bout of aphasia.
And Then : 10/6/14 I was cleaning something (ok cat puke) up from underneath my new glass table when I stood up too fast right into it and voila, trauma #3. I was out of work for a month and a half this time. Noise problems, aphasia, etc.
