(no subject)

And again, it's past midnight, and again I'm still awake. I should be at ManRay now, but I went out for sushi again, and you guessed it... in I stayed. I hung out with Mathew talking about game stuff, how are lives are going, and that I seemed more relaxed than normal in the past month. Which is all good...

The Regina returned, along with Lena. We talked about the upcoming event, then Lena left for ManRay, and we settled down to watch last night's Buffy (which they missed due to a power outage), and some deep discussion about how far peopel would go, where civilzation ends and the need to survive begins. I think that I'm a very moral person in some regards. I think that if the choice came between selling my children to be used as food and starving, I would starve. (This all sprung from a situation I read about, and I'm sure things like this are going on right now.) Then again, would I sell them if I were delerious from hunger, and someone dangled a stale cracker in front of me? The will to survive is strong, and it will tear down all our rules and laws in order to keep itself alive. But once you made that decision, and you survived and prospered again, you'd always have the memory of the child you sold away who is surely dead now. And knowing that you made that decision, it's easy to justify making other decisions, until morality goes right out the window.

I think given those options, I'd just kill the person making the deal and eat him, instead. Think outside the box!
