I have put date labels on more of my old journals, again rereading only when necessary to identify the year. This batch was easier than the previous because I was had consistent about putting the full date on the first entry in most of them (not all). I stopped after half a dozen because I was making scribal errors (1 for 9, - for / in this case), paced a little, and then realized "I'm waiting for something with an unknown time, about which I can do nothing*. Of course I'm antsy." I'm not good at waiting in general, and not knowing how long makes it worse.
I'd been thinking that I was putting a lot less in the paper journals because much of it is going here, but now I'm wondering if I was recording more detail. A piece of that may be more travel, or rather more varied/new-to-me travel. (I used a separate notebook for my first trip to England, for my mother's wedding, and one for the 1995 Scottish Worldcon, but I think part of the motivation there was worry about losing a half-filled journal.)
I didn't do a gym post Thursday, but I did go to the gym. I did a few minutes of cardio, and then a bunch of stuff with Emilie. Apparently chatting about how people deal with earthquakes stopped the muscles at the back of my head and neck from tensing up during ab work. I also did well on the balance things, and my knees felt better after the workout than they had on the way from work to the N train, despite four flights of stairs, squats, and calf raises.
*Or, rather, anything I need to do before the storm, anything useful I can sensibly do connected to it, I have already done.
