That's you, and if it works for you there's nothing wrong with it.

On the other hand, I (and I'm sure some others here) try to enter things
in GC as soon as possible, because then it's one less thing to remember.
For me, entering a transaction after the day it occurred is the
exception, not the rule. So for me, the default to entering today's date
works far more often than not.
