Is it normal to forget what i am looking for while i'm looking for it?

I often forget what it is that I am looking for while looking for it. For example, I could be looking for a pencil and then as I am looking for that pencil, I have to stop and think about what it is I am looking for. Sometimes it takes me forever to remember so I end up doing something else. Then there are those times when I absolutely have no clue about what I am looking for but I continue to look until I see it or remember.This is a pain especially if it's something important I have to find.

    i do it all the time, this and going in a room and then forgetting what i came in there for. And the best of all, wanting to say something and then forget what it was.

    Happens to me all the time, and usually when I'm under stress.
