Listen, I know you’re tempted to scribble the address from memory, like that time you swore your best friend lived at “123 Maple Street” but accidentally sent a birthday card to a pet cemetery. Memory is a liar—especially when you’re tired, distracted, or halfway through a bag of sour gummy worms.
The first step is always to verify the address directly. Pull it up from a text, an email, or—if you’re feeling vintage—an actual handwritten note. If you’re transcribing from a voice message, good luck; you’ll be deciphering “five hundred Elm Avenue” as “fire helmets ape news” by the end.
