I lose my mind when I'm pregnant. Figuratively and literally.
Figuratively: I seriously considered plunking down $140 for this awesome remote control dinosaur that the boys are in love with. In luurrrrrvvve with. But then I came to my senses.
Literally:
1) The other day I forgot the name of the company that Margot's husband owns. My husband used to work there.
2) I decided to get an early start on dinner today since the soup I made takes a while to cook. I put everything in the pot and went to fold some laundry. Thirty minutes later I came back to check on the soup and was perplexed as to why it wasn't simmering. I had forgotten to turn the heat on.
3) There was a third example, but it has, not-so-surprisingly, been completely forgotten. Dang it.
4) Oh wait - I remember. When I am in Primary now I totally forget the names of people I know. I've known some of the these people for years - some of the kids all of their lives - and yet I couldn't tell you their names to save my life.
I also seemed to have forgotten all of the wonderful little indignities that pregnancy seems to offer. Which is probably Mother Nature's way of making sure that our species continues. Otherwise, who in their right mind would do this over and over?

When I went to the doctor, I forgot to pee in the cup they gave me until it was too late. And what can you do then?
