Detail Oriented

My brain is wired to pick up on details.

I can’t help it.

Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don’t.

I can get fixated on details if I am not careful.

However, I am very select in the details I can get fixated on.

For instance, I can remember conversations that have impacted me strongly in great detail at times.  I may recall the person’s body language, facial expressions, and  location.  When people don’t recall it the same way, I don’t understand why.

I will notice errors in TV commercials, and someone else might not even know what the commercial was about.  (I have also been known to talk back to the TV).

I can mentally visualize a list of things, but forget something  from the bathroom to the kitchen.

You would think with all this attention to details I would be a whiz on our Tuesday trivia night.

Can you hear me laughing?
