temptation
Apr. 26th, 2006 01:24 amSooo . . . if I use my lunch break tomorrow to make a quick dash to the post office and the bank, should I also include a stop at Travelling Man, the games/comics/manga/DVD place?
And if I see a copy of the Advent Children dvd on the shelf, just how tempted am I going to be? Answer: very. Style over substance it may be, but I did enjoy it when I watched it at Yaoicon. I am so shallow.
I'm enjoying rereading the archives of http://www.somethingpositive.net. Not at work, though. I'm not entirely sure all my coworkers would approve of the sense of humour, and why trouble trouble?

No Second Troy
Why should I blame her that she filled my days
With misery, or that she would of late
Have taught ignorant men most violent ways,
Or hurled the little streets upon the great,
Had they but courage equal to desire?
What could have made her peaceful with a mind
That nobleness made simple as a fire,
With beauty like a tightened bow, a kind
That is not natural in an age like this,
Being high and solitary and most stern?
Why, what could she have done, being what she is?
Was there another Troy for her to burn?
-- W. B. Yeats
