My experiential memory tends to be pretty poor — I remember impressions, how I felt about things, how I reacted, a lot more than I do about the specifics. I always thought that was about being right-brained and more in tune with the gestalt of what happened than analytically aware of the components. But maybe it's just because I'm a guy.
At any rate, if there are any details to be remembered, I tend to rely on Margie to recall them. Except when I remember them differently, in which case I'm certain I'm correct. But maybe that's also just because I'm a guy.
