Heaven (or, How Much History Can You Take?)

March 4th, 2007

Yesterday I went to my parents, plugged in my computer from undergrad, and copied all media files to an external hd. Most of this stuff I haven’t seen/heard in 3 years.

Talk about a memory trip.

I absorbed too many old photos and too many songs that provided the soundtrack to four years of my life. Is there a period in life where change happens as quickly and completely as it does the early 20’s?

Question - is it healthy to dig into old chat logs?

Old chat logs can be fun and harmless unless (!) you explore one's from people you've dated. That's when trouble starts.

I have no idea what this "facebook" thing you refer to is????

I flirted with the thought. Started to open some up, and then shut down the computer. Probably the safe thing to do.

No... particularly not the ones of people you've dated.

I also have been on a "music I haven't listened to in ages" kick. My fileserver died a month or so ago and I got around to restoring everything to a little mini network drive, so now I'm like "oh cool, I forgot about this, and this, and that."
