    I have a super power. If I was paying attention and not just in my own head ignoring you as you talk, I can repeat most conversations word for word for up to a day. And I can easily give a detailed summary for up to a month.

    Acting on any of these memories is the challenge. The executive disfunction is the crippling part.

    That and paying attention in the first place.

    That said, I can also remember where I left off when I get distracted. This helps but not much.
