I'm Not Remembering the Lines

This time of the year, we're entering into a really interesting stage. The first few weeks, it's fine to be like, oh, sorry. I know we saw you last year at orientation. But now deep enough into the year where the phrase, sorry, what was your name again? He's off the table. So now he's left with his skills alone, my survival skills alone. One of which is a trick: I open up a note section in my phone and I write down a physical description of the person. Even if my brain's going, you'll remember them. You'll remember them."
