Let's see, had covid three times already. Alpha, Delta, and Omicron probably. So, instead of being sixty eight, now I am eighty nine?
I think the social security administration should give me those twenty one years of benefits I was entitled to now.
Well, at least I can still multiply seven times three and I can add sixty eight and twenty one.
I have always been bad at remembering people's names, I have known so many people well in my life that I quit trying to memorize their names. I do recognize faces well, but now as I am getting older, others are too and their faces look way different when they get over seventy years old compared to when they were under fifty. But I still can recognize them and if they speak, I know who they are and what or where I knew them from.....so now I have a good excuse because I don't remember their names when I talk to them. I will remember this thread for the rest of my life, it is important to me as an excuse.
I learned when I was a young teenager to not memorize things I will never need, do not fill your brain with worthless junk. My wife knows all the movie stars names on TV.....I know Harrison Ford and Arnold Schwarzenegger and a few others, that's it. I remember many others voices and their faces though. I do not need to know these actors names, I just ask the wife...she remembers almost all their names so why should I.
I proposed to my wife and one of my workers (Bob) on the crew I was the strawboss of asked me what her Name was. I told him her name was Pat....of course I knew her name, we were getting married next week after all. He asked me what her last name was....I told him it was going to be the same as mine. He chuckled.
I did notice that my mind was slow from the covid for about a month or so afterwards when I had covid, but it did clear up after that pretty well. I can't tell you if I lost any IQ at all, but I doubt it, because I still think way too much about everything.
