Where Did Friday Go?
Hmmm ... I thought I wrote something yesterday but I guess not. Oh, well, it must have all gone into my pen and ink diary. I do that, too, in case you were wondering. That's where all the really personal stuff goes. Then, later on, if necessary, the whole diary is kept or destroyed, depending on various things. I usually keep them but there are a couple that are destined for the garbage very soon, ones I don't want to keep, let alone have someone read after I'm gone. Each of my Moleskine diaries contains a few months of my life. No one will notice if a few months of the chronology is gone. I have diaries stored in the basement that go back over forty years. Once in a while, I'll dig one out to read or to check some fact. At one time, I thought I might use my diaries to write my memoirs. Hah! Memoirs of a crazy old entomologist! Not a lot of demand for those these days. No, really, I was and may still use them to write part of my family history. Those old diaries are great memory joggers.
