Anyone else with cigar memory overload

[Emperor Zurg]

If I like a cigar, I like it. I don't really care why I like it. If I don't like it, same thing: don't care why. Good is good, bad is bad.
So...
If I really like a cigar I toss the band in a corner of my humidor. If it's just 'meh' or I don't care for it, I toss the band in the trash.

It's simple and easy. There's no way I'm over-complicating this by keeping a journal. I've got enough to do.

I have to harness my anal retentive tendencies, else they be used for evil and nefarious purposes.

I like your carefree attitude, but seriously, it takes like 2 hours for me to smoke a cigar. How hard would it be to jot a name and description down?
It's even easier with a smartphone. Just type into a note app.
I ask myself after every smoke why I don't take pictures and do a review and actually make use of my hobby... Can't be that hard, right? I do admire your carefree spirit though. I could use some of that.

Well that's the thing; I'm never just sitting around for 2 hours to smoke a cigar... don't know if I could do it - can't sit still that long without getting bored with it. If I have a cigar I'm either driving, walking, hunting, mowing, working on something, maybe even talking to someone. I'm not at a desk and I usually have my hands full (or dirty) so just jotting a few things down is a real PIA - dangerous even in the case of driving.

Random but...
I never like any cigar at first light. Always takes at least 1/2" in for me to even begin to appreciate the stick
For that matter, I never like the first bowl of a new pipe tobacco either.
If a cigar has me impressed by around the half-way mark, I take the band off and put it in my pocket.
If the stick then starts to get nasty or fall apart or whatnot, the band comes out of the pocket and goes in the trash.
If I am impressed all the way thru to the end, the band goes into the Corner of Honor in the humidor.
I almost always buy a 5 pack so a particular vitola has 5 chances to end up in the Corner of Honor.
If there's a chance of wrapper confusion, I do jot the wrapper type on the back of the band.

Exactly, I'm not down for notes and notebooks.

There's several locked-in the memory so far, thank goodness. For the other things that are good, and I'm only on my first order, or sampler of them, that's where I can get challenged. Thankfully, all of the e-tailers so far have an 'account' page with my purchase history. I go back and click on prior orders, and instantly recall whether or not I thought a particular stick was worth, or not. Just got offline with an order on CI, and did exactly that.
