Sorry to disappoint you, but the diary’s gone.  Why?  Because.  Because why?  Just because.  I do want to say thanks to all the people whose names I’ve dropped, and anyone else I’ve forgotten.  Y’all deserve all the credit for giving me something to talk about!!

NOTE: I started the "diary" up again ten months later, under the guise of a site-updates page. Those posts have been reassembled here, beginning with the post on Aug. 11 ’99.
