OBLIVIOUS
adj.
1. Lacking all memory; forgetful.
2. Lacking conscious awareness; unmindful.
Usage Note: Either of or to can be used with oblivious: The party appeared oblivious to (or of) the mounting pressures for political reform.

Isn’t it comforting to know that we have an of or to choice? Life comes with so few choices.

Because, although I’m oblivious OF many things, I’d like to think that being oblivious TO that fact kind of evens everything out. You know, like a green tea smoothie with a side of bacon. Mr. Oblivious does a nice job summing it up with Up, which on any given day might just be the story of my life…juxtapositionally (yes, that’s my word) speaking.  But then again, maybe my oblivion is under an influence… (via Mr. Oblivious, of course).
