a memory like a sieve - you forget things so much it’s like your brain is on vacatio

you forget things so much it’s like your brain is on vacation and forgot to bring a map

I told myself I was going to remember my friend’s birthday. Now I don’t remember my own name.

I put my wallet on the counter. Then I forgot I had a wallet. Then I forgot I had a counter.

I decided to remember my list. Then I forgot my list. Then I forgot I had a decision.
