I know I often harp on about having a bad memory, it's actually surprising I can even remember this repetitive behaviour, but today it reached new heights: I forgot how to tie my shoes. I bent down, grabbed a lace with each hand, and paused; I didn't know what to do next. After a few seconds it came to me but it was a very stressful little period. I can sing the lyrics to a shit commercial from 1992, name the political divisions of Brazilian states, and correctly spell my great grandparents' middle names, but for some reason tying my shoelaces just isn't embedded in my mind.
