'Ah yes, and isn't there a way to "archive" part of your blog, or separate entries according to their type (say, RL, There, SL)? The first page really takes a long time to load :-('

Of course, the blog is archived, but I had a whopping 35 posts on the index -- I'm just SO BAD. And the image size creeps up and up...
I see the blog is two years old in October. I've kept journals on and off during my life. As a child I had years of a journal written using the code I read about in Anne Frank (no vowels). I've always written a lot that is unread by anyone (including me). That's a strange impulse, I think. Like painting a picture then hiding it in the attic. Perhaps each person only wants to reveal one facet and my artwork's my facet ... nah. Oops -- got to run, I'm late...
