i.e., most recent postings are not necessarily most recent dates;
some are added as random abstractions from past journals.

My original intention (so long ago) for this journal was to create a summary of my daily thought processes and, incidentally, my activities. But, as usual, I got sidetracked. I farmed out a number of different categories to other formats, until my ideas and my writing were scattered all over the place. I've subsequently tried to get back to the original intention, and I've been partially successful. But I'm still a bit scattered, which is probably unpreventable and ultimately inevitable (is that redundant?), because sooner or later what we are affects what we do. I'd like to be able to include all of my work, even the fiction, in one format, which would logically be this journal. But I doubt that I could ever make it happen. So I include all that I can manage to rationalize and allow the rest to go where it seems to want to belong--for now.
