Just like the movie, unfortunately

It all started because of Rico's large shifting pile of 3x5 cards on his desk (a habit he took up long before all this recent brain damage), but in the "what's it like to be Rico?" category, I direct you yet again to Memento, a brilliant little movie about a guy who's lost his short term memory. Now, he takes note-taking to an extreme, having the critical ones tattoo'd on his body, but mostly (like Rico) he writes stuff down on little cards (or Polaroids, in his case) and sorts through them when he needs (like Rico) to know what's going on.

Rico says it's just like that, except for the killing part...
