I prefer a Toga...Roman gladiator style. I get funny looks (not because of the Toga, because I go "neat" or "proper" underneath it.) Anyway, I suppose my writing is more Plato-esque....the ideal is assumed. The "true" perfection never happens, it's just a shadow on the wall of a cave.

No-name prescribed stuff....I have no idea what it is. It comes in a powder that I have to mix with water. I got it from the local hospital....that's the problem with public medicine in Japan. I am never sure if it is medicine I am getting or just baking powder with sugar in the package. I should import some Claritin D........
