To piggyback on this—if it's an important bit of information, include it sans parentheses. If it isn't important, get rid of it.

...and no, not every thing that comes to mind is important or relevant.

Neither might it be important to your audience. Communication isn't usually about communicating what's important to the speaker but what's important to the listener.

And I say this as someone who constantly has to do summaries at the end of even my shorter sentences because I end up overexplaining things.
