There are categories of Restoration, and this one may rank near the bottom: words I’ve forgotten this week. But the following list might make you feel more hopeful about yourself. One day I’ll get them all back, perhaps even tomorrow.
* Our neighbor who’s lived next door to us for years. I know his last name is Aasome, but, dang, I can’t think of his first name.
* The name of one of C.S. Lewis’ famous books. NO. NOT The Chronicles of Narnia. The one about the devil.
* A word meaning something impossibly illogical but actually true. As when you exclaim: “HOW can this BE? And yet it can. Like the fact that Margie forgets which night her favorite TV program comes on even tho it’s the same night every week.
* Denis’ cell phone number. Oh. Wait. Not a word. Those are numbers I never learned. But am starting to recognize the sequence.
* Another word for red. The color. I see it in my mind and it’s gem-toned.
* The name of that movie that starred a certain actor I like whose name I don’t recall and can’t remember anything about except that it was good and set in NYC….right.
