I have frequent moments when I will be having a fluid and coherent thought process and in the midst of it I think -- yes, yes this is a good idea. At which point I completely forget what my train of thought was or even what I was going to do. It's come up in conversation that a doctor's first easy screening test for Alzheimer's is to ask the patient to name ten animals:
seal
walrus
monkey
zebra
cat
dog
whale
mouse
raccoon
parrot
So far, so good. I should probably do more brain exercises though; all those fluff novels are rotting my brain.
