The blog is updated when inspiration strikes; sometimes the entries are just thoughts, vague recollections, and those persistent nagging memories that need to be recorded.

Other entries are purely observational, these document those fleeting moments that can take place on no particular day for no particular reason; they are the kind of moments that if not recorded will go unnoticed, forgotten and eventually lost.
