If I only had a brain

I think my brain has finally conked out on me. Yesterday, going to pick up my mother in law at the bus from the airport, I missed the turnoff for the terminal, had to loop around, then turned into the wrong part of the terminal, so had to exit and go back around. Today I can't remember the root password to one of my Linux systems. I've tried all the ones I use everywhere, but no luck. Fortunately this is an old Red Hat 8.0 install that is probably going to be wiped soon, but it is still very annoying. I am off from work Tuesday through Friday this week, but I'm not sure that will be enough to restore my sanity. (Having relatives visiting usually doesn't help my sanity anyway). I could use a serious getaway, away from everything, but I don't have enough vacation time to do that and the other trips we really need to make (I haven't visited my mom in a while now). All this is on top of a sinus infection that lurks at just the level that's too mild to force me to the doctor to to bedrest, but enough to give me a splitting headache every morning. I think I need a warm place, an island, that is very quiet.
