Well at least I can remember my license plate #; it's a vanity plate .p

I used to have a really good memory for phone numbers. Then my parents got me a cell phone, and it all went down the tubes. The other day I left my cell phone at a friend's house overnight and I couldn't remember Aaron's number to call from a land line. :-(

I'm pretty sure I used to have an amazing memory before I spent a year of my foolish youth smoking too much pot. Thing is I can't be sure as I can't actually remember how good my memory was....
