Quote from: 'autocoupler' pid='75579' dateline='1436787667'I read it somewhere recently RG, but no can remember. I love the onset of old age, everything is new, what an adventure :yahoo:
Give it a bit more time and it will be 'new again' every time you hear it, regardless of how many times you hear it. Verrrry frustrating, believe me. :dash1:
Being 'new again' is not the frustrating thing. Knowing it is not new but total lack of recall otherwise is the frustration trigger. Sometimes I find that thinking about it for a little while then putting it to the back of my mind helps -it later pops into consciousness at an apparently random moment. Obviously the request for the memory is still being processed in the background. This does seem to work well with recalling names which regularly flee my power of recall.
I have noticed that the majority of the words that elude me are nouns, and that is very puzzling. :dontknow:
Do we store nouns in a different part of the brain, or when we want to use one, is it a different part of the brain that tries to find it and fails? :scratch_one-s_head:
