Entry 492; Day 865
May. 3rd, 2011 12:05 pmToday, as it happens, is the anniversary of my arrival in the City. It was four years ago today that I left a tedious party fairly early in the evening and decided to walk home. But instead of walking home, I found myself following an unfamiliar alley down to the carousel that seemed to spin in some unknown square.
I don't know when I crossed the threshold between London and the City, because I saw the carousel while I was still in London, I feel certain, but I was very much in the City by the time I drew near to it. And there was no going back thereafter--and I'm not sure if this has all been better or worse than that boring party.
So, in light of four years of experience with the City and its ways, I have some particular advice for those in the City, both newly-arrived and established citizens, on how to endure it:
On Enduring the City and Its Ways
( [Public Post || Viewable to All] )
And do remember that the City can, in fact, be endured. I've endured it for four years, with my life and most of my sense intact.
After all, it's only the dose that makes the poison.

[ooc: It's my Poly!versary today :D That's four years! Four years. But here's to many, many more! Today, Cain will explain to you how to endure the City. Because, yeah, he knows this. Hray--!!]
