I think my brain is falling out

So I know that I have always been a little bit scatterbrained, but here is something new I am dealing with in my life. I have been doing my laundry probably since Jr high, or at least since high school. In high school my rule of thumb was, if it came out of the drawer or off the hanger or sat on my floor clean until I had to clean my room it was dirty and needed to be washed. You can imagine my mother not so willing to clean my clean clothes. Up until now I have had very little problem with doing laundry. Two or three (or four) times now I have filled the washing machine with clothes, soap and water, and then walked away. WITHOUT CLOSING THE LID. Who does that. Imagine my surprise when I come into the laundry room with an armload of clothes to see a the washer full of water and well soaked laundry. I find this incredibly annoying. I am annoyed by the fact that my laundry schedule is waylaid and I am annoyed at myself for leaving the lid up. I am beginning to understand what happens to your brain after you have a kid.
