Diaries, Past and Present
Hey.
I've done some substantial research into the time of my proposed dunno-what-to-call-it. It's bizarre that I've found so much on the web. I have a list of all the pop songs of the 80s, title and artist. I have a list of the prime-time TV shows. I have a list of the hit movies (so I can name drop on what was playing at the local theater). And on the Vanderbilt University website, I can even watch network TV newscasts from back then, day by day.
So I didn't need a personal diary from back then, if I ever kept one. Sure it would have helped a great deal, but the lack of one hasn't been a dealbreaker.
I wonder, if blogs had been around back then, if I would have blogged. I know it's doing its part to keep me sane now. Perhaps I could have used it then.
