Trust me I got that point. I hate getting distracted, be it simply about losing a thought, leaving my groceries at the store, or accidentally shutting a file.
Ever walk around with your keys or wallet or glasses in your hands and not realize you are carrying them? Or you put them down and 2 minutes later you cant remember where you put them down?
I am talking about any case where I lose track of what I am doing.
For the most part when it comes to typing and saving my thoughts, while it does happen sometimes, that has to be the least likely time I will lose a thought or lose an entire post or poem. I simply hate the rare times when it does happen.
I am far more likely to have to re edit a post because I transpose words like "there" and "their" or forget to put an "r" on "your". I cant begin to tell you how many posts I've gone back into to correct stuff like that. I hate it when I do that too but I cant spend my life beating myself up over a malady that is normal. I do my best, and that is all I can expect of myself.
