I came over to tell you something, but…now I forget. Guess I’m suffering from Momnesia !
Oh, if you send me puppies, kittens…whatever, house-broken or not, I shall swoop over your head and douse you with a dose of what I look like today. And you’ve seen that, so prepare.
Now, if I could only get my leg hiked over this broom…

Is that why pregnant women do stupid things with their cars? Like drive over dirt berms and get them stuck in the mud (at the piano teachers house or all places)? Or – hit the gas instead of the break and drive up over the curb? Or trip and fall – and instead of falling onto the pavement run into the side of the van and almost knock themselves out?
I have momnesia.

Thought you might get a kick out of the CNET video re: rickroll!
Perhaps your momnesia can be blamed on the rickroll!
