I don't think I used to do this. I feel like I used to be so eloquent!

But yet, now, I catch myself stopping mid-sentence, looking down and away at nothing in particular, maybe touching my temple like I'm Charles friggin' Xavier, and twirling my hand in circles trying to search my head-database for the right words, or people's names, or whatever.

I'm sure that'd just be aces in a job interview...psh. I feel like it has a negative charisma impact.

I want to think it's just because I'm expected to know a ton more than before, but it also makes me worry about my mental acuity when I feel like I just feel like things I should know have leaked out my ears or something.
