@pcolag: I would say others would argue that I am too "verpeilt" many a time.
I am not sure whether you have an exact equivalent in english for "verpeilt sein", but someone who is "verpeilt " would be something like a space cadet I'd say!
Hope that helps!

someone who is "verpeilt" is often forgetful, has their head in the clouds, does things haphazardly.
you can also use it as a verb.
"Oh, du hattest gestern Geburtstag? Sorry, das hab ich voll verpeilt!"
"oh, it was your birthday yesterday? Sorry, I completely forgot that".
Mind you, "verpeilt" is a very casual, teen-slang kinda word
