Vic, Prufrock seems to run around and around through my head (but then Lauren is often quoting it and that may help the effect.) You see him so vividly. And he has his socks pulled all the way up.

Ruben wanted to have this text from Eliot printed on our wedding invitations:

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.


(we had a verse from Jeremiah instead.)

I'm glad you went with Jeremiah.
