Letters to Myself

Every so often, while I muse, I come up with some idea I think is perfect and beautiful, and which I'm bound to forget. To preserve it, I text myself an email with some key reminder phrase. Sometimes I look them over, and remember a lot of things I had forgotten. I did that tonight, and I will share the full list here, old to new. Some of them I remember, and some of them will just have to lead me somewhere new without any clue as to their origin.

For the curious: where applicable, the date links to a blog post made that day.
