The Journals

I've kept journals sporadically since junior high school and my discoveries have been that (a) they're great therapy and provide a sense of perspective and (b) they're sorta fun to read later on in life.

This section was pieced together both from my high school and college journals, from the material I posted on Planet SOMA from 1996-2000, and from the journals I continue to post on this site. It makes for a good "jumping off point" to a lot of the other material on both sites as well. Enjoy...
