On Calendars

From an email I sent a friend today:

I have been trying to use a calendar for 10 years and I still consciously believe I am capable of remembering everything without writing anything down.

I —honestly— feel like whenever I write something down in a calendar, I am killing neurones; whereas if I try to remember, I am putting 100 of them on a treadmill counting down the minutes, thus keeping my brain young and fresh.

Make sense?

Yeah…

I have resorted to carrying a fucking memo book with me at all times to write shit down.

And instead of writing things down I draw web pages.

Sigh.

Whatever works! I rely heavily on my calendar and couldn’t see it any other way. It helps me keep my mind clear for other thoughts. It’s not that I don’t think I could remember, but I’d rather think about other things.
