Why is it that memories of stupid things I said or did in high school, thirty-plus years ago, can still reduce me to fits of impotent rage and self-loathing?

How did I manage to eat a pint of Ben & Jerry's New York Super Fudge Crunch today, and then forget that I had done so?

What on Earth possessed me to tell the department's colloquium director that I wanted to give a talk, to be entitled "The Equals Sign: A Curmudgeon's View"?

I've got bad news on the first one and no help on the others. Sorry.

Somehow I was afraid of that.

OTOH, I can't say I've tried anything stronger than "don't be silly" on the first - maybe there are techniques.
