I use a shell script called "jrnl" that opens vim with 3 tabs: today,
yesterday, tomorrow. It's got a "TODO" section, and if I care enough about
something from yesterday, I can bring it over. The files are stored like
2018/2018-02-06.txt, and if I really want something I can just grep for it.

No, it's mine, although I realized how unoriginal I was when I saw that. It's
pretty crappy, maybe if I cleaned it up someone might find it useful.

It's pretty much just a handy way to generate the filenames for vim. Oh, and
it generates a git commit after vim closes.

I'm a fan of Bullet Journaling. It helps to categorize, document, and carry
tasks, thoughts, and ideas forward, or remove them while making them available
for sourcing.

All it takes is a pen and notebook.

As someone who's been trying to pick up a consistent task tracking system, I
have a question: Do you just always have a notepad with you? I tried something
similar to this with a pocket-size notepad, but it was annoying and didn't fit
very well with a pen.

So far the closest I've gotten is having a Google Doc, but it doesn't have the
same flexibility that a hand-written notepad does (e.g. symbols, indexes
