    Fun fact! The reason this happens isn’t because you weren’t paying attention but because your brain “chooses” which things to remember and doing something monotonous like driving the same stretch of road you always drive causes the brain to sometimes just dump the memory of doing so.

    You were conscious the whole time your brain just decided it wasn’t worth remembering.
