I am always driving myself crazy with this. Usually with car keys, I am always forgetting where I left them, and go insane trying to find them (despite the fact I have a key hook by the front door). Sometimes I get in quite a panic, like where else could I possible look?? haha.
Same with other items around the house that I was "sure" that's where they were. And go nutty trying to figure out why the measuring cup ended up in the computer room?
Even going for groceries and such, I'll forget where I parked. And at the local convenience store. I am constantly parking on one side and when I come out, I walk the other way when I come out. And have to do the "embarrased walk" back past the windows when I realize my car isn't there....LOL.
Somedays I'll find myself driving the way to work, rather than the place I was intending...doh

And when I do finally get to my destination, I sometimes forget what I came for!
It's all so strange too. Cause when it comes to long term memory, I can remember stuff as far back as when I was 4 years old...and typically in great detail.
Anyone else have this problem?
