A reminding stare
Saturday November 05th 2005, 11:01 pm

For a week, it’s been sitting next to my laptop, its box in pristine, unpenetrated condition. It was purchased in a moment of passion when I discovered, right at the cash register, that it was available at twenty dollars off retail, and that the price would return to its MSRP stasis the next day.

World of Warcraft.

I had not planned to purchase it until after I began my new full-time job, and in terms of installing and playing it, my plan remains unchanged. Only now, a gravely serious, purple-skinned night elf gazes at me whenever I’m near my desk, reminding me that I’ve already committed.

Azeroth shall have me, for certain. All that separates me from its clutches is time.

Poppaphilius? That doesn’t seem to be a word. Did you perhaps mean Paraphilias?
