Been meaning to un-lurk to get into this conversation so here I am- I remember 10 numbers of which 4 are now redundant (my first workplace, my first landline number, my last landline number and a friend's landline number that no longer exists)
The things I miss remembering (actually consciously remembering) are birthdays. There was a time when I'd remember birthdays of everyone I know and call them up or meet them on their birthday every year. Sadly, I don't do that much anymore, may be I should start again and give those grey cells some more activities to do. I do remember birthdays of immediate family members and some friends but there was a time when I was the go-to person reminding and planning others of upcoming birthdays. I also miss making an effort to listen to, write down and learn lyrics of songs that caught my ears (in the days of the tape-recorder)! *goes back to lurking and reading interesting conversations* Regards, Amitha
