what do you call it when you go into the room with something important to say, but, once entering the room, you can't remember what it was that you wanted to say? -WordWind

Distracted. That's what I use. An example...

When Paulb posted the name of the movie I saw and loved, and thought that you would like as well, I was elated. I was running some bath water upstairs when I got his post, after reading it, I went downstairs on filled the tub with water and jumped in. Then, in a flash of brilliance, I remembered the tub upstairs and so went upstairs and turned off the water. Now I had two tubs full of hot water. I looked at the cat...no, not worth it. And so, not knowing what else to do, I simply finished my bathing upstairs.

But at that time I made a promise to myself- never, ever, would I tell anyone about this episode.

On the other hand, I've never had a senior moment. Why should I? I am four months younger than Faldage and his mind is clear as a bell.
