Well it all developed after that, and now we have moved on... Now, it's become an argument about 'decency' and what it means. Like how many decent people are in the world, how you define 'decent', how you make sure that you remain 'decent' etc. The Id, the Ego, the superego... this one goes on a bit, so I won't bore you with the details.

Needless to say, it's looking likely that we'll have to develop a Samurai code when the three of us are living together! None of us have got a sword, so enforcement will be difficult, but I think (hope) we all agree that killing people in itself is not a 'decent' act...

The irony of all this talk of honour and decency has not been lost on me as with some gratification I've noticed that everything's going to shit at the moment and it's not just my life that's suffering (although I had a near epiphany while practising the blues last night, I promise you, something's going to click soon and I'll understand it all). All around me, people are miserable, relationships are falling apart, the community in St Pauls is bitter and angry (more than usual) and it's dark outside but it's the afternoon in July for fuck's sake! Buffy would be sharpening her stake and preparing for battle...
