Well, it's good to laugh about it - gotta wring something good out of this! I loved the "Top of the Stairs Confusion" and the "The Hallway Reluctance" I like to say that my brain cells are just heading up to heaven ahead of the rest of my body!

My daughter and I were talking about this last night. She's a straight-A student; had pi memorized to 30 digits pre-RSD. This year was the hell year; onset of RSD from a stress fracture in her foot, and she missed 70 - that's SEVENTY days of school this year from a series of 8 surgical treatments and an out-of-state trip for an experimental treatment - and she still got straight A's (barely). She is very frustrated with the brain/memory thing, especially the word fumbling bit. My RSD is in remission, but I have CFS and fibro, and CFS people are famous for brain fog. I remember my college days when I never bothered with an appointment book, and wondered why people would even carry them *sigh* Now I have to write EVERYTHING down - that is, if I remember to write it down ...

Maybe we should be more pro-active and do memory exercises?
