Recap: Nepenthe

For reason unbeknownst to me, the time I got up this morning (which is no earlier nor later than I usually get up on Saturday mornings) overlapped directly with the janitor's time during which she was cleaning out our bathroom. Very thoroughly it seemed, because I've never seen it take this long.

Meanwhile I did laundry and read "The Raven" because I figured I really need to read that poem, just so when people mention it I'll have an idea of what they're talking about.
Mr. Poe is quite obsessed with dead ladies, it seems. An entire style of poetry.

Also, discovery of late that sexual orientation does not seem to exist in Sims, which means that, theoretically, all characters are bisexual. I wonder if that's done on purpose or if it's just a few lines left out of the general program, another option in character building? If you think about the game from the programmers' level, it's way impressive as it is. If you just think about it from the gamers' interface level, that's somewhat disturbing.

The few hours of silence on a Saturday morning. Aside from the sounds of the janitors.
