I am the sonnet, never quickly thrilled;
Not prone to overstated gushing praise
Nor yet to seething rants and anger, filled
With overstretched opinions to rephrase;
But on the other hand, not fond of fools,
And thus, not fond of people, on the whole;
And holding to the sound and useful rules,
Not those that seek unjustified control.
I'm balanced, measured, sensible (at least,
I think I am, and usually I'm right);
And when more ostentatious types have ceased,
I'm still around, and doing, still, alright.
In short, I'm calm and rational and stable -
Or, well, I am, as much as I am able. |

Hi, my name is Anna, and I'm anonymous! Well, kind of. If you're one of the people who's lucky enough to know both Blogging Me and Real-Life Me, please don't use my full name, the names of my family members, my hometown, or the name of my pet elephant (oops, I think I just outed myself) in your comment. My paranoid family and I thank you: thank you!
Also, I moderate all the comments. So if you slip up and tell everyone my social security number (or any other personally identifiable information), don't worry, I just won't publish your comment.
