Seems like age is catching up....and I haven't even touched a quarter century yet! :|
How else do you explain things like forgetting names of people you went to school with, the song you heard in the morning, the name of the place where you gave your first college party and the weirdest of all - words!!!!
It was always a task to be able to remember by dinner what I had for lunch..Now that happens with most of us. I am sure even you don't rem what you had for lunch yesterday!... You do it without being aware of it but this is a whole new level! How can you forget words! Its almost comical filmy Paresh Rawalish... when you remember the concept and forget the bloody word :|
Too much dependence on google for everything you can't remember? Just Plain Distraction? Overwork? Beginning of Selective Amnesia? Information overload??? (!!)
Exaggeration? Well. Okay, Somewhat.
Worrying? Definitely!

As an ECE engineer, you should be able to appreciate this explanation...
Your memory is like a buffer, so as you keep pushing data from one end, once it reaches the end of the buffer, for every new data point that you push in, some data gets pushed out.
Again, you wouldn't forget some stuff ( "Oh!! I forgot to login to GTalk today!!") since this data is present in your cache as this is accessed very frequently..
Some other stuff (like "Oh!! I just totally forgot to breathe!!" ) are not forgotten because this is hardwired
