Sometimes I’ll notice that a building that I used to drive by all the time is gone (leveled to the ground). I know it’s gone, but I can’t remember what it looked like or what was in it. I just know it’s gone.

Is there a name for this?

    I have that HARD. As I’m heading out the door, I have a mental list (grab keys and that paper for work, stop for gas, message person about thing) and if my wife asks an unrelated question on my way, I essentially rip up the list, answer her question, go out the door, head to the car, come back in for my keys, get to work, notice the empty gas tank, and remember that paper I left at home.

      I have this bad as well. I have to go back to where I started if I want to remember. That seems to help “reset” stuff.
