Today marks four years of these pseudo-daily thoughts. For those keeping score, I believe that pre-dates Blogger and the recent flood of web-based journaling. Of course I can’t act like I’m that original; in the true nature of the Internet, I stole the idea from someone else.

One of my favorite things to do when I’m looking for inspiration is to read the archives. It sounds rather conceited to say that I’m my own best inspiration, but it’s really just a matter of remembering what inspired me on some random day in the past four years. Sometimes you’d be surprised. It’s also fun to see how many typos, broken links, and inconsistent styles you can find.
