I'm 29 and I've been experiencing this all my life. Especially the very obvious word part. That's how "floor spatula", "floor blanket", "trash panda", "majestic sea flap flap" and similar fun terms are born. (some of those are not mine) Short term memory lapses I mostly attribute to inattention and mind racingness. But I'm not old yet so maybe it's different.

Is "floor spatula" a dustpan?

  Yes. See, it works :)

    I love it! I have a tendency to do the same thing and I suspect it'll only get worse as time goes on (or better, depending on how you look at it). I'm definitely stealing floor spatula though.

It's quite frustrating to be able to come up with very complex descriptions and not remember the obvious name/word. Actual thing I've said: "What's the name of that actor that played Han Solo, Indiana Jones and who recently nearly crashed his own plane into another full of passengers by landing on a taxiway?"

  Bonus points for frustration: "...and also his last name is the name of a famous American automobile company." I mean at that point I would probably be thinking of General Motors.
