[ARC5] Getting Old Suuuuuucks...

Guys, please let me be clear about something:
I want to help most of our community, when
I can.  But I'm old now and I'm SLOW.
Sometimes real slow.

And even worse- things fall out of my ears,
especially when work or just "life" is pulling
my hair in seven different directions.
Sometimes, I seem to keep up OK.
Others... not so much...
I swear I remember my name because
Kay marks it on my shirt tags so I'll see it.
Waiting for the day I have to call her and
ask where we live.

For instance:
There's a box sitting next to my desk on
the table.  It's all packed and ready to
go.  It has been for days, while I struggle
with what it was and for whom...
I remember someone needed something.
I have NO IDEA what it is or who needed it.
I think his name started with "S"...
You'd think by now I'd remember to write
everything on the package.   Distractions
at just the right moment prove there are
malicious gremlins who see to the timing.
It's embarrassing to admit.  I'm going to
have to open it, whereupon I'll likely say:
"Oh YEAH!"

So if I'm supposed to send you something,
and you don't hear from me for awhile,
I will not be offended if you (politely)
ask about it.  In fact, I will take it as a favour.
