I purchased oil/filters on the way to work. Prior to that, though, I'd done the dishes, put up a batch of mead in the primary fermenter, loaded my pipe with some Cherokee tabacco, washed my utility trailer, welded back some hardware on it that didn't get enough penetration, and made my lunch.

Of course, being busy today is no excuse. I even did my semi-annual testing at work before I got a chance to put the truck on the lift at the auto hobby shop. As I got underneath it, I noted that the oil pan had never been that clean during a change before. In fact, I noticed the universal was still glazed. In fact, I recalled being annoyed when it was more wet and dripping all over the driveway...about a month ago. I'd changed it in December, then my wife's and then my daughters and simply forgot about it.

I'm 48 and today I realize that I was probably smartest about four years ago when I started my current job. It's obvious now I'm getting stupider. I'm not even sure stupider is really a word. Instead of being upset, though, I intend to go with it.

Today, I've chosen to forget that whole PMD misery thing. Tomorrow, I intend to forget "Steak Sauce". Saturday, I want to forget how annoying removing the vacuum pump was. Heaven knows what's next. What are you willing to forget?

Well for remainder of today before I go to bed, I'll forget this country has elected the most Liberal president and Congress I thought was possible in a great nation, and thank God I have a good bunch of Diesel buddies I can commune with about the ownership of the 6.5 in times good and bad
 
I'm 50 and a handful of months, Dan, and I forgot...

... something. I'll let you know if I remember what it was :D
 
Think of it as our brains are just overloaded with knowledge. 48 in June
 
The smartest thing I'll do today happened when I added my last oil change mileage to my signature.

Hey, I got my pond approved. This fall, the state will provide me with free channel cat and bluegill by the hundreds.
 
And I`m 55 in July and just now feel like a little kid coz Paulie Boy has just ordered the "ATT" yeee Ha...):h:D ...Oh I nearly forgot,, thank you guys for the inspiration....
 
When you can't remember what that thing in yer avatar is, it's time for professional medication, Dan.................

The only problem is you forgot the milage while walking from the truck into the house to the computer.
