Ugh. Forgetful today.
I put in my contacts first in the morning to feed the cats; we have one cat aptly named Hungry by my daughter, and Hungry will not leave you alone until you feed her. It is a real pain. She'll rub against you. Run ahead and then just lie on the floor and not move, so you end up against kicking her. Meows tons, and the really weird thing is this cat never meows unless she knows she is about to get fed.
I wanted a shower after the rest of the cat care (litter, water, dried food, some treats). I remember I filled my contact lens case with contact lens cleaner then got in the tub. I just do not like to shower wearing contacts, I will if I have to, but I don't like to.
Got out of the shower, dried off, opened contact lens case to put in my contacts.
No contacts anywhere.
Sometimes I may drop one but never both of them. Examined the case inside and out, no luck. When to the other bathroom where I have a spare storage case. Nope, not there.
Finally, I gave up, got 2 new contact lenses in the right strengths, went to the bathroom sink (the bathroom I had showered in), to put on makeup. I was in the middle of washing my face, about to rinse when I looked down into the sink. OMG, both of my contact lenses were in the bathroom sink!
Why on Earth would I put them there? I also have no memory of putting them there. I have been in contacts since 5th grade, it is second nature to me dealing with them. Crazy.
I have been going into rooms a lot, forgetting why I went to a given room, and then I remember 5 to 10 seconds later (usually) why I went into that room, like oh, yeah, I went into the bathroom to collect dirty laundry or my daughter's room to pull out a couple dresses in her wardrobe that are just not wearable to school or at home (underpants show). She has grown so much, she is now eye level with me. I am 5'4" tall but H is 6'4" tall; the pediatrician said she wouldn't be surprised in my daughter ended up 5'10", 5'11" tall. This pediatrician has been accurate in all of her predictions regarding my daughter so far, so I don't doubt her. Sucks though. I'd love to be a bit taller.
