Narrative:

I relieved a person on the mid shift who seemed very tired or sleepy. That controller got up to leave and I did not get a briefing. I started my scan as soon as I sat down and noticed an aircraft had deviated another center's airspace. I called with a handoff to that center and they took it. The aircraft had already entered the adjoining center's airspace before I sat down. I did not write down the aircraft altitude or call sign and after my relief came I did not find it to write down, so I had forgotten the call sign and altitude.

Title: RELIEVING ZME CTLR DOES NOT OBTAIN RELIEF BRIEFING AND LATER OBSERVES AN ACFT UNDER HIS CTL ENTERING ZKC AIRSPACE WITHOUT A HDOF.

Narrative: I RELIEVED A PERSON ON THE MID SHIFT WHO SEEMED VERY TIRED OR SLEEPY. THAT CTLR GOT UP TO LEAVE AND I DID NOT GET A BRIEFING. I STARTED MY SCAN AS SOON AS I SAT DOWN AND NOTICED AN ACFT HAD DEVIATED ANOTHER CTR'S AIRSPACE. I CALLED WITH A HDOF TO THAT CTR AND THEY TOOK IT. THE ACFT HAD ALREADY ENTERED THE ADJOINING CTR'S AIRSPACE BEFORE I SAT DOWN. I DID NOT WRITE DOWN THE ACFT ALT OR CALL SIGN AND AFTER MY RELIEF CAME I DID NOT FIND IT TO WRITE DOWN, SO I HAD FORGOTTEN THE CALL SIGN AND ALT.
