This made me laugh, as I've done the same thing for years. I just keep a "to do" text file open and put new things into it and move things into the completed section when done. I don't have time for the JIRA method as it is overly complicated and I work on a lot of solo projects these days, so the additional features aren't useful. My boss just wants a weekly status update (email with a few bullet points), so nobody would care anyway. I'd say it is super effective for me.
