[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 535639, member: 13882"] TL, Don't beat yourself up...I think it's an age thing. You and I are virtually the same age, and I find myself doing the same kinds of things. I used to have a razor sharp memory for names, and I could even memorize a grocery list in my head and never forget one item. Now, I go to the grocery store with a written list, and still manage to forget at least one item on the list right in my hand each and every time I go shopping. Forget about names...I used to know the names of all the current and former movie stars and the movies they were in. Now, it's like playing charades with me...I describe them in roundabout ways and the person I'm talking to must keep guessing who I mean until they hit the right name. So I think it is a combination of your stress, for which you've built up a tolerance by now, and just hardening of the arteries! In my book, you can still run rings around everybody else - don't worry! [/QUOTE]
