Scope files to YYYY-MM instead of YYYY-MM-DD

 For almost 20 years I manually used YYYY-MM but thought it might be
 useful to do YYYY-MM-DD since the creation of the files would be
 automated by the script.

 It turns out in practice that this wasn't a good idea because the notes
 become too scattered. Often times you'll be working on something today
 and writing notes but tomorrow when you resume working, you'll want to
 reference the notes from yesterday.

I tried YYYY-MM-DD for a month and there were about 20 times where I
thought "damn it, now I need to look at the previous day's notes". Now
this is fixed by just using YYYY-MM to begin with.
