Notes

This index holds short pieces that grew out of my reading notebook. The subjects are narrow on purpose. Each page describes one habit or observation rather than trying to cover an entire book. Dates show when an entry was last given a careful pass.

I keep the list chronological because that is how I tend to search it. A topic index might become useful if the collection grows much larger, but for now the dates and descriptive titles are enough. The limited size also makes it practical to reread old entries rather than merely adding new ones.
