I've got memory foam pillows, a memory foam bath mat and memory foam slippers. Went into another room and couldn't remember what I'd gone for. Proof positive that they don't work!

Yes -- keep searching. Eventually you'll find something you were looking for in a previous search.

There was actually a scientific study done on that. It is called an Event boundary.

You forgot WHAT in the next room...the last room? What? Foam room. Sounds nice.

Here’s a bit of “memory” information I read about a while back. If you run into the above situation, go back to the room or area where you first thought about it. Usually works for me...almost instantly. (True!)

Of course, you have to remember which room or area you were in when you first thought about what you forgot.

I never read about it, nor put two and two together, but it is true. I sometimes walk into a room not remembering what I'm looking for. I barely make it back to where I started when I'm doing an about face.

Not really if you are one of us who experiences this on a regular basis.

Too funny, but I can definitely relate.

If your zipper is still zipped, at least they work partially.

And what do you do when your memory foam goes flat? Like my Sketchers shoes? The outsides look great. But the foam 'gave out' in about 2 years!

Hope what's left of my memory lasts longer.
