Really Can't Do Math

The other day I started to do some short division, Ya know actually divide a number by another number on a piece of paper with a pencil. When was the last time you did that? I can't remember the last time I did. And ya know what? As I wrote down the math problem on the paper and started to work it I realized... I had completely forgotten how to do a division problem. I stood and looked at the numbers on the paper and laughed. Sad, embarrassed laughter. Oh my lord...I have no idea how to do this anymore. It has begun. I am now in the moving stuff out of my brain stage of living. Obviously I don't need that info anymore but it did seem like I should have recalled something so basic.
I got out my smartphone and used the calculator.
