I Know I Know You But I Can't Remember How

posted Friday, 13 March 2009

     We went out to dinner last night and I saw this woman and I knew I knew her, but for the life of me I couldn't place her. If I'd actually run into her I would have asked, but I saw her from across the room, so it would have been awkward to interrupt her.

     That kind of stuff really bugs me, though. I wrack my brain trying to figure it out and usually I can, but not this time. Argh.

My Brightest Diamond--"Hi, Remember Me" mp3 off Cross-Pollination: The Mix Tape Vol. 1 (buy)

Maps--"You Don't Know Her Name" mp3 off We Can Create (buy)

     So that picture is supposed to represent my brain struggling to remember how I knew this woman. The stuff is bubbling sulphur found in mud pools in Rotorua, New Zealand. Freaky, isn't it? I found it here.

There are "mud pots" in Yellowstone NP that are like the picture you showed, and they definitely stink as well.

I know what you mean about not being able to remember people. I met a guy at a conference 2 weeks ago, and he and I both are certain that we know each other from somewhere, but we couldn't figure it out. I've taken to carrying a pad of paper around with me just so I can write things down and not lose track. I'm being proactive against my senility, I suppose! Hopefully, wordscrapper will help our brains out!

i like that, pro-active against the impending senility! the craziest thing was i could practically hear the woman's voice in my head, like i knew we'd had conversations about something. i'll probably never figure it out!

I hate when that happens, especially when the person says hi!

i know! it's like there's this empty space in your brain and nothing to grasp onto!

I hate when that happens, and you just reminded me I have to look up the name of an actress I saw in a DVD last night so I can figure out where I've seen her before. It's a family obsession.

sometimes i can think of the first letter or two of the person's name, and then i run through all the possibilities until something clicks. it becomes an obsession at that point, for sure!
