Set a 5 minute timer on my phone then immediately forgot why

Was at the grocery store last Tuesday and wanted to stop myself from browsing snack aisles for 20 minutes like always. Set a 5 minute timer on my phone so I'd grab what I needed and leave. Got to the deli counter, heard the timer go off, and stood there staring at my phone like an idiot trying to remember what the alarm was for. Ended up buying a bag of tortilla chips I didn't need anyway. Has anyone else's brain just completely blanked on the whole point of blocking something?

I mean come on, is this really a big deal? So you forgot why you set a timer. You ended up with some chips, big whoop. I've done way dumber stuff than that and I'm still here.

And now you've got tortilla chips on top of whatever you actually went for, classic move. Next time just accept the snack aisle fate and skip the timer entirely.
