These are fascinating! The piano has always been a fandom mystery, but I'm scratching my head about the diary! Very Quantum and Alternate, and totally cool. :-)
It was not supposed to be _that_ alternate, but I could not watch the show when I was writing it. Later I found that Daniel's "diary" they were reading in season1 was not really a diary and included Abydos. So it's totally AU now.
I have, however, several contradictive ideas of how it got there.

1. Crayons. He never did find out why they were there. They were in amongst his journals and, at first, he panicked that someone had used them in the journals themselves. Turns out they hadn’t. All he can do is guess why they were there. He assumed that Jonas was perhaps trying to find out more about Earth’s cultures and he had come across crayons but he would never know for sure

1. A book on horticulture - while Daniel remembered that he often had to negotiate with various cultures on SGC's behalf and as such he read up on numerous subjects, he could not for the life of him remember any mission or negotiation that needed this knowledge. And the book looked extremely well read too, with underlined passages and everything. (Daniel had borrowed it on for a bet from one of the botany students, when he was in university. The bet involved marijuana

1 - The night after Daniel's memorial service, Sam wandered around aimlessly until she found herself in Daniel's living room. She stared blankly around the room for a moment before curling up on the couch. It was the first good night's sleep she'd gotten since Daniel has slipped away. (A diamond stud earring

a kilt (university of chicago tartan). as far as he knows, daniel has no scottish ancestry. he assumed he wore it to a colleague's wedding.
a mix tape. since it's music that he never listens to, daniel assumed it was a gift from someone who didn't know what to get him.
a half dozen popular fiction paperbacks. since daniel prefers non-fiction, he assumed he got them from airport gift shops to read on planes.
50 dollars in canadian money. daniel's pretty sure he's never been to canada, so he has no explanation for that.
author's note--there is a university of chicago tartan; http://www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanDetails.aspx?ref=629
(daniel studied at the university of chicago's oriental institute)
