For want of an itty bitty notebook, all was lost...

Do you ever get like this? I have been meaning to buy a little 2x4 spiral notebook, to carry around with me and jot down things as I think of them.


"I have to call and book Jeffrey's well baby visit/buy waffles/teach Rose about Gilgamesh."

"Hmmmm...if I just had that notebook I wanted, it would be so easy to jot it down. I really need to get that notebook."


But I'll never remember to GET the notebook, because I keep telling myself "if I only had the notebook" I would write it down, and go get it.

I've been thinking this way for weeks. Sad to say only now did I think to maybe staple a few sheets of paper together, so that I could start a list that says:

Buy Notebook

It is downright scary how much my life reflects Toad's.
