I find memory was/is more evocative and more cellular when I look at those records that were done pen to paper.

My sense of time has gotten all skewed recently as well. I've been living here for seven years now, which is longer than I've lived anyplace since I was 18, and entire years of this experience are just a muddle. (I dated who? From when to when? Wait when did we meet? Huh.) I frequently half-forget how old I am (I thought about it this morning...33? 34? Pretty sure 33). When I write this out it sounds bad, but I don't think I have any real physiological memory issues. It's just what being 30-something feels like in these circumstances
