I have no brain left.

I wish I could find the garage key.

Monkeys must have stolen it out of my hand in the three feet between telling [personal profile] zenten I had it in my hand and making it to the apartment door.

He's slowly teaching me skills to live while I have an impaired short-term memory.

I totally will not be winning any fights until after the baby is born.

Well, you might, but neither of us will remember the next day ;)

Yeah, I gathered. I'll look for it more when I get home.

I know almost nothing about pregnancy. Why is your short term memory impared?

I remember when [livejournal.com profile] zenten sucked my brains out. You have my sympathies.

Well, by all accounts, the hormones make your brain totally flake out on you.

Subjectively, women rate their memories as worse, but most research says only implicit memory is affected... which I'll agree with in my case, but because I rely heavily on my implicit memory, I find it nearly crippling.

It's the portion of your memory which allows you to use previous experience to perform a task... driving, cooking, throwing a ball... without ever having to consciously consider your actions

I now have to stop and actively think about everything I do

doesnt having the baby mean you have the ultimate trump card?

From: [identity profile] waterspyder.livejournal.com


You'd think so, but zenten gets to counter some trump cards with "But I'm protecting you and the baby"

That means I must have been pregnant my entire life.

Go me!
