Just now I began a new search for my shoes. I looked in a couple of the usual places before remembering that yesterday when I took them off, I thought "This is not one of the usual places for my shoes - this is a little out of the way - I won't find them quickly. But if I leave them over here I won't have to walk around them all night, and I definitely will notice them at some point if I'm searching. So I'll leave them here." On remembering that, I found them quickly.

I remembered what I thought about as I took my shoes off, but not where I was/they are. I eventually realized this is not the first time I've done this and in fact I think I do it all the time. I've just never noticed before. So I'm watching myself a little right now to see... I think it's a feature of adhd. I often remember what I felt, better than whatever happened.

I'm curious if others' memories work this way too.
