Have you done this?

Yeah I frequently will forget about something if I go and start on another thing.

 

This is me so much, I always start to brew my tea and then just leave it there until its dark and bitter. So much tea has gone to waste because I space so hard :*(

 

Yeah, like I'll start playing on my phone while I wait for a certain time, and then I'll get caught up in something and forget to do my homework or eat supper.

 

Yup. Like the other morning when I put some english muffins in the toaster oven and then during school was like "Oh yeah, I started making english muffins"

 

I leave things in the microwave all the time because I get caught up in something. I also have a problem with putting cereal in the fridge or milk in the cupboard haha

 

As for boiling water, no. I get very paranoid about things that could cause a lot of damage if unwatched so I watch them a lot. But I've probably forgotten about less dangerous things plenty of times.

 

I thought it's pretty common? And I do that all the time too, just to be reminded again seconds later (and then forgetting it again)

 

A number of times I've been cooking pasta, only to forget, come back half an hour later to find the water gone, and the pasta burnt to the bottom.

Yeah, I need to stop doing that, lol.
