    Yeah, my wife tries to read me lists of things and I have to stop her. There’s no way my brain will retain it.

      My wife and I recently read that people remember things different ways. One of the ways people remember is the emotions around a situation and not so much the words that were said.

      This is me perfectly, I can’t recall what happened but i remember how everyone felt about it.

      So I can’t tell you the words that someone said about going to the airport, but I can tell you they don’t want to go. But just not the words they used.
