After using Microsoft Office products at work from dusk to dawn, it always frightens me to jump back into Adobe CS5 software. But here's what happens: I hesitantly open my desired file, mouse around a little, make a few clicks, and then forget to be scared.
Adobe products are intuitive in a different way than Microsoft Office. I find my biggest mental stumbles happen in moving back to Office and wanting it to do what inDesign can do. I have Word 2010, it MUST be able to do a simple thing like show me guidelines on a page. But I have no idea how to do such a simple thing... Why can't I just grab the ruler bar and drag it onto the page? Oh, yeah. It's Word.
Overall, I usually feel like I'm in the middle of that whole metaphorical "riding a bike" scenario when I use inDesign.
