in which my nerdiness knows no bounds

[anotheranon]

I am terrible with names - I mean poor bordering on nonexistent recollection.

I've tried (and will continue to try) the usual recommended memory aids of repeating names once I hear them and trying to associate the name with something, but in addition, I've also started keeping a spreadsheet.

Yes, an Excel spreadsheet of New People, including where I met them and through who, and some distinguishing features/facts about them.

This fact came up in conversation tonight, and some people seem to find this hilarious.

What??? Seeing something printed (or at least on the screen) helps me!
