That would probably explain why going back to the room I started from tends to make the memory resurface!

It kind of feels like I left the memory behind in that other room, and when I return - "Oh, there it is!"

Then I walk back to the kitchen (or whatever the intended destination was), mentally repeating why I'm going there so I don't forget again.

This could also explain the "Where the hell did I park that damned car?" phenomenon.
