When I practice I usually switch back and forth between playing songs, scales, and just messing around. When I'm messing around and I hear a section that sounds appealing, I just tab it out in a manuscript paper notebook. Ya know, with all the lines already. Makes it less tedious. I even buy standard notation notebooks cause they're cheaper and just write in the 6th string notes below the bottom line. So I just leave that and a pen next to me when I practice and write down everything I like. Later I can go back and mix and match different pieces or pull out stuff that's especially good, and build on it.
