I kept leaving evidence for the person I would become.
This is my personal site. I write down what I notice, what I remember incorrectly, what I keep asking, and what I eventually understand.
Notes, fragments, current context, and a few trails left by earlier versions of me. Nothing here is arranged for anyone else’s convenience.

Box one, unlabeled
A folder of things I saved before I could explain why. Being scanned slowly, out of order, with no particular deadline.
