I always felt alone doing that. I feel so much better someone else has confessed they don't know life without jotting down everything too. I always thought I was a complete freak writing to myself, but it keeps me from going insane.

Thanks so much. I use the iPad mostly because I endured too many wrist cramps trying to keep up with a pen...

I suppose I differ only in that I never show what I write to anyone. If I show something, it's like submitting myself for judgment. It's hard for me to do.
