This is how it manifests itself:
I decide to water my garden.
As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.
As I head towards the garage, I notice mail on the porch mesa, tabela that I picked up from the postman earlier.
I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.
I lay my car keys on the table, put the lixo mail in the recycling box under the table, and notice that the recycling box is full.
So, I decide to put the bills back on the mesa, tabela and take out the recycling first.
But then I think, since I'm going to be near the postbox when I take out the recycling paper anyway, I may as well pay the bills first.
I take my chequebook off the table, and notice that there is only one cheque left.
My extra cheques are in my escrivaninha, mesa in the study, so I go inside the house to my escrivaninha, mesa where I find the cup of coffee I'd been drinking.
I'm going to look for my cheques, but first I need to push the coffee aside so that I don't accidentally knock it over.
The coffee is getting cold, and I decide to make another cup.
As I head toward the cozinha with the cold coffee, a vase of flores on the worktop catches my eye – the flores need water.
I put the coffee on the worktop and discover my leitura glasses that I've been searching for all morning.
I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first I'm going to water the flowers.
I put the glasses back down on the worktop, fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote control. Someone left it on the cozinha table.
I realise that tonight when we go to watch TV, I'll be looking for the remote, but I won't remember that it's on the cozinha table, so I decide to put it back where it belongs, but first I'll water the flowers.
I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
So, I put the remote back on the table, get some towels and wipe up the spill.
Then, I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do.
At the end of the day:
Ø The car isn't washed.
Ø The bills aren't paid.
Ø There is a cold cup of coffee sitting on the counter.
Ø The flores don't have enough water.
Ø There is still only one cheque in my chequebook.
Ø I can't find the remote.
Ø I can't find my glasses.
Ø And I don't remember what I did with the car keys.
Ø Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all damn day, and I'm really tired.
Ø I realise this is a serious problem, and I'll try to get some help for it, but first I'll check my e-mail...
Ø Do me a favour. progressivo, para a frente this message to everyone you know, because I don't remember who the hell I've sent it to

Bob was in trouble. He forgot his wedding anniversary. His wife was
really pissed.
She told him "Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the
driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 segundos AND IT BETTER BE THERE !!"
The seguinte morning he got up early and left for work. When his wife woke
up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box
gift-wrapped in the middle of the driveway.
Confused, the wife put on her robe, veste, roupão and ran out to the driveway, brought
the box back in the house.
She opened it and found a brand new bathroom scale.
Bob has been missing since Friday.
