( Yesterday was a good day. )

I'll be back May 31st, hopefully meanwhile with tales of my jaunts across the German countryside and the drive to Wales and Scotland. It'll be fun, even without my beloved computer. I'll have to write lj entries on paper, because blogging seems to be the format into which my writing skills have molded themselves.

Mmm. Thank You for Smoking is an entertaining movie. Dan is entertaining company. Katz's cheescake shakes are diabolically delicious (no, I was not paid to advertise them).

It would be so easy. And such fun for awhile. Mmm. But I am not a terrible person, unlike many other people of my acquaintance. I will not do it.

Or rather, since the opportunity has passed for now, I didn't do it. I restrained myself. I could be such a manipulative wretch, though, and there's so much in it for me that I have to remind myself constantly that it'd turn out badly and I don't want to make a mess that ugly. So I live in a measurably less ugly mess instead, and appreciate the beautiful things outside myself.
