After almost 6 years of radio silence, I’ve decided to reboot this part of my digital life. Though now in 2018, that distinction is approaching meaninglessness. This fact is largely responsible for these sentences: the realization that time is escaping into a void (nothing new) and that the 2018 version of void has an inbuilt capacity to keep score.

So here we are, again, in an attempt to use a medium as a springboard, a work bench, a podium, a lectern, and a saw horse for a better version of my future self. In these 6 years, the digital tools of self tracking have improved dramatically. Though clearly my failure to use this basic platform for the past 20% of my life had little to do with the tool and everything to do with the craftsman.

But, why not try again? The original premise holds, perhaps even more tightly.

“The part of life we really live is small.
For all the rest of existence is not life, but merely time”

–  Lucius Annaeus Seneca

For whatever constellation of every damn reason there is: here I am, here this is, let’s see where it goes.
