I noticed recently that I seem to be getting more forgetful as I get older (duh!) I thought that it might be useful to start logging my memories as they occur to me. The goal is not to wow anyone with fancy prose, I just want to quickly log events as they emerge from the fog.
Last night, I was trying to figure out my earliest memory. I decided that it was laying on the couch with my father, watching "Welcome Back Cotter." The reason that I was laying down with dad was because I had become really frightened at a local haunted house. Why mom had taken me there in the first place was beyond me. I was quickly taken home and was left with my father to console me. Overall it was a good night, and not a bad memory to capture.
