Memories... like the corners of my... um... uh...
- What kinds of things do you find it easy to remember?
People's birthdays, meaningless phone numbers - What kinds of things do you find it difficult to remember?
Things I need to accomplish (without a list), the kids' schedule - How does your short-term memory compare to your long-term memory?
Both suck a lot worse since I had kids - How do you commit things to memory? Do you use songs, images, word associations or other tricks?
Some things, I just say aloud and it seems to be enough to commit to short-term memory. In school, I used acronym mnemonics. Sometimes they worked.
