There's an open doorway between my kitchen and pantry.  I've renamed it
the "Arch of Forgetfulness", as I can never remember why I went in
there.

Because I clearly don't read as much as others on the list, I try and
learn here and there. I don't know if it's true, but it certainly is
interesting.
Happy Thanksgiving for those in the States :)

By Jack Moore <[log in to unmask]> Have you ever walked into a
room and completely forgot what you were planning to do? You're not
alone, and there may be a reason why, according to Life's Little
Mysteries<http://www.lifeslittlemysteries.com/walking-doorways-forgettin
g-2192/>.
A University of Notre Dame psychologist says walking though a doorway
acts as an "event boundary," for the mind. That means simply walking
through a door can reshuffle and compartmentalize our thoughts, making
instant recall more challenging.
