Absent Minded

2025-07-30

Are you ever in the shower, cleaning yourself under the hot water, and start thinking:

Hmm, what are the other things I have to do today? I need to pick up our oldest son and drop off diapers for our youngest, and then after what are we going to eat for dinner. I wonder what is in the fridge, I think we have some chicken and rice. But I dont think we have enough of it, so maybe we cook salmon. I should defrost it after this shower. What goes well with salmon, maybe some asparagus. Do we have it? I will check.

What else, what else? I need to work on this new project. I wonder what is the best way to solve it? Maybe Chat GPT can help with the algorithm? Ugh the algorithm in the hardest part, what is a random forest anyway? Are there any other algorithms? Do I even have all of the data? Is the data wrong or is the algorithm wrong?

Ohh shit, it is Sneha’s birthday in less than a month and I haven’t done anything. Does she really want anything? Like a present? Or just a dinner? I think she could buy something herself, ohhh she wanted new shoes but I dont know her size so we should probably buy them together. I really don’t want to buy the wrong size. But she would definitely want a dinner, I should message her and see what she thinks. If we go out for dinner then we will need a baby sitter for the kids, I appreciate her sister and mom for helping out a lot. I also feel bad that we are over burdening them. I wonder if they would want a present as well. They really dont need anything, maybe delicious food? I do think their family’s love language is food.

My love language is definitely acts of services. It is definitely how I show love, oil changes and what not. But I also think it is how I receive love the best, it is nice when Sneha does some acts of service. I do think Sneha’s love language is quality time, she loves quality time.

And then I think, ohh man did I shampoo my hair already? Ohh well I guess I will wash it again.

This happens to me all of the time and so I wanted to write about it. I am pretty absent minded, especially in the shower.
