swimming,swimming, just keep swimming



in general, i hate cartoons. this post really isnt about animation, so you might wonder why i posted a picture from a cartoon (albeit a feature length, animated, disney movie) here. well having a dozen or so nieces and nephews and my affection for them is great,so i subject myself to cartoons because they like them. in doing so,you pick up a couple of things like how dory has a huge problem with short term memory loss.
i am beginning to think that i have a huge short term memory loss issue too. just yesterday i had a GREAT idea for a post. normally i will go right to my computer and type up a few words or lines to remind myself of the great idea. i mean, most of these thoughts are fleeting and if you dont document them, they are gone, right?
well, i couldnt get to my computer, so i tried repeating it in my mind a few times and telling myself NOT to forget this great idea. i even had an idea for a graphic.
have you noticed that i have been putting more pictures up? its kind of my new thing. doing a quick google image search and voila! a little punch to the post.
guess what? i forgot it. i can remember the feeling of being excited about the idea and the graphic. i try to jog my memory, but to no avail. so today you get a silly post about how my mind is no longer a steel trap with instant recall with a cute picture of dory, who, like me, has a memory issue.

  1. I don't feel so bad about my forgetfullness now. I end up entering notes into my phone to help me remember.

  3. I find it particulary ironic that the cartoon has a spelling error. Don't worry, I won't judge you.

  6. It says "what you siad" and unless I am wrong, siad is not a word. I looked it up on dictionary.com. But it's ok.

  7. lol. i SWEAR that i just published your post w/o reading it, but knew it was regarding the spelling error, so i checked for errors again. i totally missed "siad" the first time, but caught it before i read your post. i HATE when i miss stuff like that. i would have picked a different picture. i was kind of focused on the spelling of "dory". i thought it was dori or even dorie. oh well. you always catch me with the proof reading. arghhhhhh!
