Mr. Forgetful. Indeed.


Actual Conversation:

Hub: My coworker was telling me about an App for the iPad. You'll love it.

Me: Oh yeah? What's it called?

Hub, with slightly furrowed eyebrows: I don't remember exactly. Like Wiki, or something.

Me: Wikipedia? Why would I need an App for that?

Hub, more convincingly: No, it wasn't Wikipedia. But it was definitely Wiki-Something.

Me: Oh. Well, what does it do?

Hub, eyebrows definitely furrowing, puzzling a bit: I don't really remember.

Me: You don't remember what the App does?

Hub: Not exactly. But I know you'd like it.

Me: So, basically there's an App for my iPad that I 'd definitely like but you don't know what it's called or what it does?

Hub: Yeah.

Sweet Holy Moses.

I am wondering. Do I need to be concerned? Do I need to start feeding the Hub gingko biloba and start hanging him upside down on one of these inversion tables so the blood rushes to his brain and start playing mind-sharpening games like Scrabble or Sudoku or Spin the Bottle, even?

Note: When I was a kid and we played 'Spin the Bottle,' I was petrified that the bottle would spin at me and I'd end up kissing a boy and getting pregnant.

Additional Note: Obviously, I was not well-versed regarding human reproduction.

So, what were we talking about?

Note: Hmmn. Shall I make that gingko biloba and mind-sharpening games for two? Break out the bottle and give it a whirl!

Heck, yes!

For the record - a Wikipedia APP is far superior to just using Wikipedia. seriously.
