    I do precisely, exactly, unequivocally this.

    Just yesterday, I taped a grocery list to the doorknob, and chanted it in my head to remember.

    I literally crumpled it on the way out and forgot it. It wasn’t even close.

    I had lots of other fun thoughts, though. Like of image sensor technology, and my sunglasses, and delicious goat cheese, and cats.

      Picture something absurd and surreal, like the list coming to life and trying to smother you as you approach the door. Mnemonics work and don’t take practice.
