Wow, nobody should have any kind of record like this journal. I started this almost, what, ten years ago? 22 year old me was practically illiterate and seemed rather preoccupied with girls, food, and finding cold toilet seats. I wonder, what did anyone see in that foolish, slightly sexist (love degrees of sexism, like being a bit sexist isn’t really being sexist or anything), grammatically challenged young thing. And the length of some of the posts! Who did I think I was, I mean really, in this digital world of tweets and blogs and blogospheres (man, spell check is ok with “blogosphere,” I am really old), who wants to read three pages about a girl I had an awkward date with?

I am so glad I got to meet some of you, and you didn’t great me like some kind of slow person… “Hi there, my… name… is… Jenny, can you say Jenny?” because I would have, based solely on my writing style and voice. I really wish I could hang out with http://narcissa.diaryland.com again, enjoy one more meatball sandwich at closing time on a humid Ottawa night. I can’t believe I was in New Orleans at the same time as her and we didn’t hang out, totally was humid enough.

Well, that is all for now, glad to be back, my brain missed being used to write this thing, and the rest of me missed reading my favorites.
