mommy mush brain -who would have thought it would come to this

i just spent the last five minutes trying to log on to my own blog account because i couldnt remember my password.....from two nights ago. now this sort of term memory loss used to really upset me til today when i went swimming with my best friend. we both have 2 kids seven and younger and above and in between their yelling and splashing, my friend and i were trying to have a semi adult conversation about current affairs- i know- why bother right? the sad truth is that it wasnt a conversation. neither of us could remember anything. the topper came when we couldnt remember for at least five minutes the name of that angular faced fellow with the turban .....world trade center....oh yeah ben laden. i feel better though cause i was the one who actually remembered his name. she was still stuck on it starting with an 'H".
