So Randal has a post up about memory-mapping<\/a>, which is a concept I just love because I am constantly trying to grab onto ways to bank my memories before my brain kicks them out or muddies them too much, so and I have jumped on board with all my baggage and made my own memory map. It’s just such a lovely little concept, I think, to find yourself combing over topography and allowing specific memories to bubble up and implant themselves again in your immediate consciousness as you see specific locations. It’s been cathartic for me to remember the hilarity and the drama and the ridiculousness inherent in my adolescence and teenagerdom. In many ways, I had a lot more figured out then than I do now.
