Right. I am increasingly worried about annual trends. Though I have been journaling in many forms for the past 11 years (scary thought!) I have a wealth of information to explore. True, I have consciously purged some of the more important documents (from about 1998-2003, I doodled regularly during class, and had well over an inch of papers that also contained some poetry and in 2005 I got rid of well-over 2/3rds of it all).

You recently replied to a comment I made many months ago, saying you had just gotten around to looking at the links in it, & observing that I have not been as active with updating. This entry explains those two focuses. (interest in online things like old journal comments, increased interest in online tendencies such as posting less)I think I am very different in life than I am online. I am probably a lot more accessible. I am a bit evil ( ... )
