Great idea for a list, and I'm sure a common phenomenon here.
Reminds me of this party I went to some years ago in a big apartment building. I was having a blast, but after a few hours I noticed none of my friends had shown up, and realized I was on the wrong floor, and at the wrong party.

Ha! Good story, John. I'll bet no one even noticed, either. ;-)
Laiane, you're likely in good company. That phenomenon is one of the reasons it's so hard to get away from Wordie and do something else--like work, maybe.

I have a similar list, Lessons of Wordie. Although looking it over, I see I've forgotten what some of them mean. Maybe I should start a list of words I once knew. Or ones I can never remember the meaning of, like hermeneutics.
