As I Recollect

A collection of recollections

01 May 2006

An introduction

Some memories are fleeting, some are recurring. Some are transient, some are persistent. Some are nuh, some good, some great, some not so any of those things. Many are triggered by outside stimuli, many by the twisted wanderings of our minds. Mine are almost always visual.

This is an experiment in recording them. I'm curious to see if my recollections will spark others of a similar sort, but mostly I'm just curious what I will come up with by actively trying to record memories on a regular basis, something I've long toyed with doing (on paper). Most will probably only have relevance to me, but we'll see. I may try to put a time reference to them, I may not, also to be seen.

I once found a great Web site where folks could record their memories, which were searchable. Unfortunately, it got lost in the great Firefox bookmark mix-up of 2005. If anybody knows of it, I'd appreciate a heads up. Thanks!

Maybe we should think of having a group memory blog of our own along the lines of the 'social events' blog that Walaka set up?

Could be a plan. We could use this one if you all like, or set up a new one. Any takers?

By the way, I always garden-path myself with your URL and (try to) parse it as: As Ire Collect and then get in trouble at the lack of 's' on Collect. Maybe I can start my own Rants-only blog and call it "As Ire Collects"... Except it would be way too personal and neurotic and not-pretty to share it with the general public!
