I am horrible at the memory game, my husband is even worse.  The world would be a easier place if we all had permanent  "hi my name is" stickers.

Yes Pooh.  It happens a lot.  But not only do I forget the names.  I sometimes also forget who they are or where did I meet them.  I have worked in many places and have met a lot of people and sometimes I just have to ask.....sorry.....from where do I know you?  Its embarrassing.

Oh worse then that I had this long conversation with a woman that I 'thought' I knew, just to find out that she wasn't who I had believed she was.  Unfortunately my new friend  ;D worked at the local grocery store so I had to run into her over and over and over again.  Each time she probably thought, oh gosh here comes that crazy lady again.

You are just so darn friendly Laurie.  I just did this Saturday.  Ran into a man that I coached ball with for years! (15 years ago).  I knew who he was, where I knew him from and everything, but dang if I could remember his name.  I finally just said, "Oh Sorry, this is my husband."  I figured he would either introduce himself or because I didn't give him my Hubby's name, would just say, "Nice to meet you." 

Then I turned quickly to look at a rack of merchandise......
