Unreal how often I do that, and always have – forget the common words for things, or twist things around like aminal or occifer.

I struggle in meetings when asked questions as I’m at a loss for the details and proper terms at that moment.

I usually say “I have the notes at my desk, I’ll email it to you” to save face.

I’ve had some embarrassing moments at parties where I end up making up or messing up words and it sounds like, well, something some wouldn’t say in mixed company.
