Somebody else already mentioned it, but emacs org-mode is what I use. I have a document in my dropbox with the cheeky name "life.org", in which I contain everything from my sleep log to my recipes to my work lab notebook.
If you're like me, you have trouble sticking to journals/logs. I like having one collapsible document in outline form. I can remember it, and I come back to it. It works well with the natural chaos of life. And it feels more satisfying to add to one big log.

I hope to have a way to make sure that whether I’m logging using a phone or from a computer there’s a fairly seamless process to sync everything up. Org-mode is so powerful that it’s hard to discount.
