Im always absent minded.Most of the time at least.
I misplace things.I dont pay attention when people talk to me.I forget to do things.Im always in my own bubble.I actually tried to get better at being more focused..and I did get better,but i still have slong way to go.
Any other absent minded people here?

I sure am tired of staring at the kitchen wall for over 10 minutes forgetting what the heck it was I went in there for in the 1st place.

I heard somewhere: People that are smarter have selective hearing because the brain is quicker to disconcern itself with information that isn't pertinent... but don't tell your wife that!

How would you go about testing that?
I remember a day in art school when we were working on drawing a female skeleton. The instructor opened up the cranium to see if he wanted the class to include inner-cranial features. A girl popped a comment, "Now you know what's inside a girl's head."
I said, "Yea. Dead air and a bolt."

I read once that Einstein was so "absent minded," he would sometimes forget to put on his pants when he left the house.

My problem is that I have such an intense focus that I sometimes tune everything else out. I'm pretty good at expanding the focus when I need to though; for example: If I'm at a poker table and someone increases the pace of their breathing or adjusts their posture, I'm on it.

I used to be super absent-minded about misplacing things, but since I've divorced, I have only myself to depend on, and I don't lose things, lock myself out of my house/car, etc. like I used to.
