Do you keep a log of incidental characters (e.g. shop assistants) or forget them once they've featured?

I have a document that I'm writing my current chapter in. It contains all the random notes I've made, usually some semblance of an outline, though I rarely adhere to it, and a list, in alphabetical order, of all the people, places and things in the book, so if I forget someone, or someplace, I can scroll to the top and look them up.

@golgaloth I keep a journal of them. And update it as I write. It's kind of fun.
