I'm sure it means something that the response I got to this evening's formal ritual was "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", but I have no earthly idea what it might be. . . .

Specifically:
    There will be time, there will be time
    To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet;
    There will be time to murder and create,
    And time for all the works and days of hands
    That lift and drop a question on your plate;
    Time for you and time for me,
    And time yet for a hundred indecisions,
    And for a hundred visions and revisions,
    Before the taking of a toast and tea.


(. . . actually, that may be a response to my feelings of worthlessness and inadequacy and not-getting-done-what-needs-doing . . . Amazing how writing down the question produces the answer, isn't it?)

I grow old, I grow old, I shall wear the bottoms of my trousers rolled . . .
