You'll just have to keep it up in your computer brain.

I wrote an app for iPhone to do it...

Armory does it for me.  Very swept up solution where you can monitor several wallets in the same window, checking balances of each.

I also believe there is a service somewhere which will monitor the value of an address.
I like http://btcbalance.net (not affiliated) to keep track of multiple read-only-addresses (up 'till 50, I believe), simple and easy to use.

keep a unprotected list of the public addresses and look the current balance up on blockchain.info.

More advanced solution is to make a "watching wallet" (contains only the public addresses so it can't spend coins).  Armory client and blockchain.info ewallet can both produce this.  I also believe there is a service somewhere which will monitor the value of an address.

Let's say I have a paper wallet under my mattress... How do I keep track of what its balance is? Couldn't I come back in a few years only to find out it has been cleaned out by some surreptitious snooper?  Huh
