I ask that you strengthen my ability to recall people’s names easily in social situations. But if I fail to do so successfully, please deflect attention from me with a timely cosmic diversion (an earthquake or an Elvis sighting should do nicely). Please allow me to walk further than 15 feet between rooms without forgetting what I’m doing or why. And before I’ve searched every acre of the mall’s parking lot looking for a green 2-door, please help me to remember that I drove the red SUV today!” A marvelous gift for yourself or anyone else in your life in this predicament.
