ENTER! Avatar Contest: I know there's something ...

[Kai "the spy"]

Okay, the topic is things we tend to forget. Whether it's something we wanted to do, a special event you couldn't remember, stuff like that.

Usual rules, no media.
Have fun!

 

[Ghost07]

ooh! This sounds very interesting...

I can't count the number of times I've gone grocery shopping for one item, come home with a crapload of stuff I didn't necessarily need, and forgot to buy the one item I went out for in the first place.

Packing a suitcase; something always gets left out.

If I forget to enter the contest, will that be considered my entry?

welcome to the club! I usually write a shopping list so as to not forget anything and then I forget the darned shopping list.

 

[Mary Ann]

This is exactly what I do. I'm not one of nature's list makers to begin with, which is a problem because my memory is crap.

 

[RJDiogenes]

I've been on Lisinopril for about eight months and I still have trouble remembering to take it every morning. I bet a lot of people have trouble remembering their medicine. Er... right?

 

[Mary Ann]

Yep. There's good reason I never used the Pill as birth control. I'd have 13 kids, not 3.

 

[RJDiogenes]

Heh. Good thing I'm exempt from that.

 

[Kai "the spy"]

Nice entries, so far.

Alright, time for my own: I keep forgetting dates. Not the dates themselves, I usually know the date of "today", but special events on those dates, I simply keep forgetting about them, like birthdays, or holidays, or my nephew's first day at school.

I have an unfortunate tendency to forget leftovers in the fridge

 

[Kai "the spy"]

So you're a Hollywood cop cliché?!

 

[rhubarbodendron]

I'm afraid I don't get that reference.
I'm just someone who buys much too much food and who goes out and buys even more while there's still something in the fridge, gradually evolving into intelligent life.

I put up a pinboard in my kitchen, though, and in the future shall buy only what is noted there. (unless I forget to look at the board...)

 

[Kai "the spy"]

I'm afraid I don't get that reference.

Really?! It's one of the classic Hollywood clichés, the single male cop opening his fridge in search for something to eat only to find rotten leftover Chinese take-out and a carton of sour milk.

Really, I only forget to put on deodorant when I'm trying hard not to forget anything.

Ah! Blame it on the fact that for the last 2 years I've been living without TV and didn't find the time yet to install the satellite dish. I hope I'll get around to it before I turn 300

Well, that wraps up the female vote.

Six entries so far. I'll give it two more days, just in case someone forgot about this contest.

 

[rhubarbodendron]

LOL that'd be a pretty good entry too
