Do you ever go back to books you read a long time ago and look at the notes you made in the margin and wonder, not only what the hell you were thinking about when you made that note, but who the hell you were when you read the book? I was poking around in Coleridge’s Biographia Literaria just for fun (it’s a strange and silly book & it’s where we get the phrase “the willing suspension of disbelief”) and found lots of notes I made in the margins when I read the book in graduate school. They’re s confounding.

I found a ten year old journal recently and just had a great time laughing at myself.
yes. very often.
