So, do you use the head-jogging technique these days or have you moved to a list? Hi Liz! So, do you use the head-jogging technique these days or have you moved to a list?

I work on autopilot for toothpaste and socks. Though for some reason, deodorant is a bit more tricky, which accounts for why I've got at least four tubes on hand at any given time. (That, or I'm just obsessed with not smelling bad.) As for the rest -- I'm also NOTORIOUS for leaving behind chargers for the variety of electronics (cell phone, PDA, iPod, laptop, etc...) I travel with. For those things, rather than relying upon something as prosaic as a list, I just run through my previous failed attempts at packing in my head, jogging my memory by revisiting past flubs. I love the M-W list, BTW, particularly ginormous and slickery. :) My brother's also a huge fan of woot.
