Archives

The funny thing about having a blog for nine years is the more time passes, the more removed you feel from the early posts. The person I was nine years ago is so drastically different from who I am today, that the archives are starting to illicit the same reaction for me as finding a seventh-grade diary. The urge to delete/burn/stuff it all under the mattress forever is very, very strong.

But what can you do? It’s all a part of the same site, and yet somehow, it has nothing to do with the site as it is now. Tagging and categorizing posts from eight or nine years ago is starting to seem really meaningless. I’m tempted to dump the majority of it into an unclassified archive category.

Yes, I rather think I shall.
