But, I've become quite convinced that it's possible to have pregnancy brain sans pregnancy.
Case in point.
Last night. Our sink drain plug went missing. Like absolutely-no-where-to be-found missing. I searched the kitchen for over an hour {Um. It's a small kitchen, so to be sure I looked in the same places multiple times}. I'm completely befuddled. How do you loose a drain plug? There is no other home for this kind of thing. I'm thinking I threw it in the garbage. It's still missing. See, pregnancy brain sans pregnancy.
And, last week, I put the milk jug "away" in the microwave. Adam asked, "Hey, why'd you put the milk in the microwave?" I replied, "Um, I did not do that! It's NOT in there" {for some reason I was quite upset with this. He was quite gracious with me}. He proceeds to show me the warm milk in the microwave. Oh. oops. Pregnancy brain sans pregnancy.
This past weekend I was almost sure that someone stole my work keys. I had it all figured out in my head that I'd need to convince the church they'd need to change all the locks because someone stole my keys. I looked everywhere. I retraced my last steps. I even looked in the garbage.
Ew.
I looked in the same spots over and over again. I was going crazy {by the way, this little episode was not helping my case in proving to one of my volunteers that I was not pregnant. My constant snacking on soda crackers coupled with this episode was not matching with my "I'm NOT pregnant" confession}. Anyways. I ended up finding my keys. At the bottom of our name-tag basket. Now how'd that get in there? Pregnancy brain sans pregnancy.
And a couple months ago, I lost a $700 gift certificate to Ikea. I put it in my "safe hiding place"...now where is this "safe" place again? Arg. Pregnancy brain sans pregnancy.
I could provide many more pieces of evidence to prove my point. But we'll leave er at that.
I think it's proven.
I have pregnancy brain WITHOUT being pregnant.
I pity my Husband for when that day should actually come.
I quite literally fear for our sanity.
oh gosh, you are too funny girl. i'm exactly the same way. i've left my cell phone in the refrigerator at least 10 times now. what will we do when the time actually does come?! ;)

I have always had blond moments but lately it has gotten really frightening how bad and often they are and unless immaculate conception happened I cant be pregnant. So I thought I would google it and stumbled on this blog. I have to really laugh because I have done some of the same things! just today I carried the recycle over to where the garbage dumpster is and after I emptied the bag of plastic/glass, I realized I dumped it in the garbage dumpster instead the recycle can right next to it. The worst part is this isnt the first time I have done it. lol
