I have a recording app on my iPhone, but by the time I find which pocket the phone is in, enter the passcode and find the app, I’ve generally forgotten the number or chore I intended to record. It works well when I have, like, a VIN number or model number or whatever that I need to use to look up a part, though.
It’s like waking up in the middle of the night, with a great idea. You quickly write it down so you won’t forget it – only to discover, in the morning, that you can’t decipher your own handwriting !Or, in my younger daze, when my muses were assisted by alcohol, weed, or whatever… I often revisited my epic genius the following day, only to realize that it was complete rubbish !
That’s like when you have a really creative dream and reach for paper and pen to write down the amazing plot. Then when you look at it later, it’s gibberish!

I make my notes in my left palm. More concealable that way.

Might have been a doctor when he worked, writing anything is illegible anywhere anytime.

JonniSince effective tremor wrecked my legibility, I have had a nagging fear of going on trial for practice of medicine without a license.
