Question about memories.

[conuly]

Where do they go when you're not thinking about them? I mean, you don't remember everything all the time, right? Some things you may have trouble recalling (the word is on the tip of my tongue!), but even the things you remember easily (in fourteen hundred ninety two...) you don't remember *all the time*. Most of the time, they're... not there. Your current thoughts are there instead. So where are the memories?

hmm.

My memories are located in the back of my head, towards the bottom of the round-cranium-bit. They are flat and like very fine sheets of good wood.

However, sometimes they unweave into balls of fine angelhair-noodle nests (you can buy them like that. it's neat looking), and scoot into the space behind/in front of my forehead, where my actual thinking takes place. Very annoying when trying to remember specific things, and then you remember the hilarity that is Professor X being pushed down stairs. yeah.
