A quiet field journal of digital archaeology. Reconstructing a life from 25+ years of digital traces, with occasional help from ChatGPT when things get weird or surprising.

3.3.0

The Following is the first entry in a journal I started while living in Seaside, OR. As you can read, I was 19 and thinking I was a punk. No, I was. The arrows and symbols in the text are actually in my journal (I hope they show up in your browser on your OS). The spelling isn’t correct, so I left it as is. I had decided that I wasn’t going to use the first ‘0’ in the year, so the date is 2000.

(upon moving into
1256 Ave D.)

A new page a new start-clean-clear-claustrophobic no/more → moving into fresh, green pastures… →← now I have thoughts begining and ending at my pace who am i? season of change—time anew. search for answers within Him who solves everything for him who He made. 19 and still young. 19 yet so old. amputate my flesh. peal my skin. melt me into glorification… “justified, sanctified, in you i’m noting less… torn apart inside myself… a dripping bloody mess…*” sleep takes my eye lids slaming them down to pieces. ❚frail. ice. Book One.i is a failure… will i get through this will you ↓ get through this? what are you ↓a grandkid? who’d i marry??? you’re grandmother is/was a saint, she put up w/ me for __ years. how? my great-g-pa was the idea bhind my writing things out. P-land tomorrow-sleep right now… fall down to sleep in Your lap Lord Jesus Christ…
good timing ➘

*”Heresy” By Jeff Suffering
It strikes me that I was already assuming (no matter that I was correct) that I would fail at keeping this log for any duration of time. This was 2 years before I met Heidi, but I feel like I defined her pretty accurately. It is also worthy to note, as I continue to post these entries, the amount of change I was asking for 5 years before I would really start trying to change.
