Every once in a while, I'll go on a massive cleaning spree. Inevitably, the cleanup dredges up old Christmas cards, photos, and memories ... and the cleanup ends up taking a week longer than expected. My place is currently a mess of books, photos, and clothes strewn all over the place.

When I was younger, I didn't care too much for cards - I thought they were pretty hokey. But man, am I glad I kept them around. It's amazing how many people cared and supported me through my life: I had a massive guilt trip as I realized I let so many of these people go in my life. So many people keep sending me Christmas cards, when I fail to do so. Maybe I'll pre-empt them with Thanksgiving cards (and skip the Christmas cards) this year (we'll see how long this feeling lasts).

Anyways, I want to send out (into the Internet void) some positive karma for all my past friends who send me postcards, cards, and photos. They are truly cherished by an older me.

To be honest, I don't think I've ever had that ah-ha! moment when it comes to the internet. Although the past 6 years worth of entries are on this site, I just don't get that same feeling as I do with these mementos. That has to say something about the Internet.
