Casual experiment results: Just now made a call to my health insurance (go, me!) and doodled my way through listening to the menu of choices….

Ended up having to replay the message. On the replay, instead of doodling, I wrote down the numbers for each choice, even those that did not apply to me. That worked a lot better. Reminded me that I used that strategy a lot in my later school days – I just wrote down EVERYTHING the professors said, whether I needed to remember it later or not. Because as soon as I stopped writing, phhht…..Brain disengaged.

Time to go find myself an icon…..
