has that ever happened to you?
i mean, i will be in the most random places, and i will think, "wow, i am so going to blog about that." and i can start thinking of links, and pictures and on, and on.
and then like, three minutes goes by, and that thought has been replaced (or moved) by 20 more thoughts (like dinner, and picking up kids...etc.) and then POOF! gone. never to return.
and it bothers me. a lot. because later i sit down, and pull up my blog, and can't remember anything except that i had a really good/political/funny/interesting thing to discuss and then....NOTHING.
it is really frustrating. and as much as i would love to blame all this on pregnant head...let's face it. two kids (plus pregnant), a job, a husband, a house to run....are you kidding? those thoughts are never coming back. and i sometimes just feel lucky to still GET the random thoughts, those that are apart from my ever growing and ever updated mental to-do list.

This is how it manifests itself:
>
> I decide to water my flower tubs in the front garden.
> As I go to turn on the hose I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.
> I go to get the car keys from the porch and then notice the post on the porch table.
> I decide to go through the post before I wash the car.
> I put my car keys on the table, put the junk mail in the bin under the table, and notice that the bin is full.
> So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the rubbish first.
> But then I think, I can run down to the post-box when I take out the rubbish, I may as well pay the bills first.
> I take my cheque book off the table, and see that there is only 1 cheque left.
> My other cheque book is in the computer desk, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the can of Coke I'd been drinking.
> I'm going to look for my other cheque book, but first I need to push the Coke aside so that I don't accidentally knock it over.
> The Coke is getting warm so I decide to put it in the fridge to keep it cold.
> As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke, a vase of flowers on the window ledge catches my eye--they need water.
> I put the Coke on the window ledge and discover my reading glasses that I've been searching for all morning.
> I decide I better put them back on my computer desk, but first I'm going to water the flowers.
> I put the glasses back down on the window ledge, fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote.
> I must have have left it on the kitchen table.
> I realize that tonight when I go to watch TV, I'll be looking for the remote, but I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the living room where it belongs, but first I'll water the flowers.
> I pour some water in the flowers, but some spills on the floor.
> So, I set the remote back on the table, get a towel and wipe up the spill.
> Then I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do.
> At the end of the day:
> The flower tubs aren't watered;
> The car isn't washed;
> The bills aren't paid;
> There is a warm can of Coke sitting on the window ledge;
> The flowers in the vase don't have enough water;
> There is still only 1 cheque in my cheque book;
> I can't find the remote;
> I can't find my glasses;
> I have absolutely NO idea what I did with the car keys.
> Then, when I try to work out why nothing got done today, I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all damn day, and I'm really tired.

i feel a little better now!
