Katie, need some help here

The sentance:
Don't even remember I was there.

Syntax:
Since memory is something in the present, "don't" seems correct.
It sounds strange.
Saying, Didn't even remember I was there would indicate I currently do remember, which is not the case.

Your thoughts?

(I know this is addressed to Katie, but if any of you other 'wanna bees' have an opinion, I will read them, but probably only believe Katie. Of course, you could wait until she responds, then agree, but that won't earn you any points.)

Never knew I lived in Kentucky




Today I found a report card from a school named Barkley in Fort Campbell, Kentucky. Don't even remember I was there. Inside it says from: Jan 28 to Mar 1, 1963.

USNS General Alexander M. Patch


I came across the Atlantic on this in February 1961. I think it was my last cruise. Haven't been on one since.

Ya, that's me

Gandhi quote I find interesting

Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest.
