"Call it a place to vent. In summer, venting can be done in other ways -- so I'm not terribly active right now. Nevermind. Come October, when the sun heads south for the winter, I'm pretty sure there'll be plenty of stuff to go on about."

I wrote that in July, to explain the hiatus. Never did get around to posting it. For a while, figured this for a dead poject. Late October, started making entries again. Wasn't sure about posting, while the thing was still going. I'm shit with sympathy. Didn't want to make a fuss.

It's done now. My ambivalence about entries October thru early December has resolved into that being what I started a journal for -- to have a place to put stuff I should remember.
