Those two years or so of wandering nomadry qua exile were a bit difficult, yes, especially in terms of keeping up the work. If I had just cut loose from my projects and wandered, I would have been free for a bit, then lost. But now, of course, I'd do almost anything to get back to those difficult days. Almost. (To quote Meatloaf:) I won't do that. Not that I've been offered any, but any job that requires secrecy is most firmly, perpetually and unequivocally off the table.
Just thought I'd put that out there, to save some time in the future. And save the future.

The Jena Logic again today. Some progress. I'm alternating Dewey work and Hegel work, for no reason in particular. And slowly getting the concepts that I initially merely stared at pugnaciously (in one) or glossed mindlessly over (in t'other).
