Amnesia

The past couple of days have been themed along the lines of "remembering things that have been forgotten." A preliminary list to illustrate my point (which hopefully also makes up for missing a blog entry yesterday):

1. My sister-in-law, Heather, blogged about things that she used to know but doesn't anymore.
2. Mark and I zoned out in front of the TV last night, and we ended up watching a random game show called "Amnesia", where the contestant has to answer questions about their life in order to win money.
3. The book I've been reading this week (Eat Pray Love, by Elizabeth Gilbert) has been making me reflect on how much I've forgotten to just relax and enjoy life as it's happening.

So now, my actual list of things that I've forgotten that I once knew:

1. Math - I mean, sure, I use statistics in my job, but most of what qualified me for a bachelor's degree in this subject is gone (I have no idea how to prove anything, like the fact that there are infinitely many prime numbers...did I ever know how to prove that? Oy.)
2. The names of all of the books in the Bible, in order (I think I could patch together some strings of names, but rattling off all of them is not happening. Goodbye, junior high.)
3. Grammar - Since ceasing to be graded on things like correct punctuation and not splitting infinitives, I've really begun to slide downhill here...and I used to be really spot on. (Can you blame me, though? I get emails from coworkers sometimes that have things like "its" and "it's" mixed up...who's going to hold me to a higher standard of self-expression?)
4. Enjoyment - This may sound dismal, but I guess it kind of is. Does anyone else relate to being so responsible and future planning-focused that you forget how to be alive and participate in right now?

I'm sure there are lots of things that I am forgetting that I have forgotten...but there's not much I can do about that now, is there?
