Gotta love having zero working memory. I'd love to be able to remember something for a few hours without it getting locked in the Evergaol of my long term memory.

...I hate that I relate to this :(
Does she have a walk in fridge??? 5 minutes?!?!
It's because it's really really disorganized.
Have you never searched through a sea of condiments, packaged foods you impulse bought weeks ago, and 13 different flavors of soda and sparkling water, and then not found what you're looking for so you have to repeat the whole process again and maybe a second time because you swear it should be in here and you must have just missed it before?
I have! But not for a carton of eggs. 😂
One of my coping mechanisms is routine. My eggs always go in the same place. If they aren't there when I open the fridge, then I don't have any!
Unless they are on the counter behind me.
This reminds me of when I wanted to go on my balcony and drink a coffee. So I made one and walked to my balcony coffee in hand to see a coffee on my window ledge. Facepalm. Then I walk outside and see a coffe on the window ledge outside aswell. No working memory.
