I have one of those little notebooks for writing down passwords, but I'm security-conscious, so I just write every character as a dot.
Passwords expire so often in corporate settings because passwords are not shelf-stable.
Passwords should be refrigerated after opening. If kept refrigerated in an airtight container, a password will last up to two weeks longer.

Some password advice from an infosec professional:
Good password hygiene means choosing a password that is hard to guess.
One that's hard to type. Hard to remember. Hard to think about. Hard to LOOK at.
A password that makes you feel disoriented, uncomfortable.
In short, your password should be a Cthulhu.
