Brain work funny

Sometimes I wish I'd taken more psychology classes (actually I wish I'd taken more archaeology classes more than psychology classes, but that's another thing entirely). I'd really love to understand what it is in our brains that makes us so clearly remember our embarassments and mistakes. Or maybe it's just me. Maybe I'm the only one who does that. Or maybe only certain types of people do it. I'm sure it has something to do with the emotions you feel when you're screwing up something. But it's really a pain in the ass to be able to vividly remember making a complete fool of yourself in junior high but not be able to remember hardly anything you've ever done right.

Sometimes I forget this is supposed to be happy fun time. :) I haven't been sleeping well lately. Forgive me.
