(OT sort of) Software for Journal or Diary

I would like to know of software that does a good job of letting me make
bulleted (sometimes detailed) notes of things I did during the day. These
will be reminders for my personal annual productivity reports, which I must
complete for the job.

* if it is calendar-based or -formatted, that would be nice

* if the software is freeware, that would be useful

* if the software is exportable to other formats, or has widely importable
format, that would be useful (what if I use it in Linux, for example?)

* I am wondering if also there is an online solution (ultimately
"portable"), although there is danger (?) of privacy breach. Google
Calendar, as far as I can tell, does not seem to be set up to provide the
kind of service I am interested in
