Well done, Clippers.

I want to make strawberry bread, but it's so nice and warm curled up under this quilt. It's gray and cold and raining here.

I read the article, to which I will not link, and it's apparently a black person saying we have to stick together and fuck the NBA playoffs, and was just ire-inducing.

I read that. It was... something.

I use Google Calendar, Evernote, and a Moleskine (Star Wars) diary. It depends on what I need to remember, and how far in the future it is.

I don't use Evernote for To Do management, but I use it for a lot of external brain stuff.

It is called Autofocus!! [link]

I think this might be the problem I have with Evernote- I would have to remember American Airlines in order to find it, and instead I remember all around things.

Now that you say it, that's totally it! And it would have bugged me forever even though it wasn't my question, so thanks for sharing.

Ooh, that system is actually very close to what I do, but with a couple of smart additions. I should do that!

Oh man, now I have to write up two employee reviews. It is not that much more fun on the boss side!

The funny thing is that I just remembered it! I totally didn't get it with any search terms at all!

I think this might be the problem I have with Evernote- I would have to remember American Airlines in order to find it, and instead I remember all around things.

Well, since there's a folder called "Shared with Moji" and the first document is "ita's flight itinerary for Christmas" then I can't work out the difficulty.

I'd say that it's because my brain works too much like Evernote, but there are people accomplishing some shit with it that I don't even know. I'm like -t with it--it's my external brain, and sometimes a reminder because I can create a note by talking to my phone.

Okay, laundry done, mostly--I'm out of quarters, and the snack food is baked (I have burnt my arm, twice, two long blisters right next to each other--SUCH A LEARNER, SHE IS).:

And the mass on Friday is directly across the street from my building.

Heh! Thanks again for the offer of a place to sleep. But I need a bolthole. I would like to hide for every moment that's not a ceremony, pretty much.

As a supplement to Post-it notes and Google Calendar, I use Evernote for To Do lists, Shopping Lists, and as an external brain (notes to self, the hotel I'm staying in and the room number, account numbers, frequent flyer numbers, login info for accounts I rarely use, to take a picture of the fancy Scotch I like when I'm at the liquor store and can't remember, what medication I'm on when I need to fill out forms.)

I still haven't had luck with an external brain. Just systems to make my brain brain remember. If it is in an external brain, then it is gone totally from me somehow. I also can't file anything that I am working on, or I forget it exists. I am weird, I think.
