The path of the chaste man....

.... is beset on all sides by the goadings of his friends and the scheming of voracious women.


Well, maybe not the latter, in my case (worse luck!), but certainly the former.

I have been trying to avoid The Library Bar of late, because I am finding its overabundance of attractive women just too painfully taunting.

But my buddy The Choirboy is forever trying to inveigle me into joining him there for a drink (it seems to have become his new after-work standard)..... and tonight I have caved in.

No good can come of it.

Only temptation, frustration, disappointment..... and more wavering (just a wobble, no more) from my avowed path of asexuality.....

I say go for it. Tempt yourself to the limit.

But, you do realize it's Wine Club night at the Worm? You don't strike me as a Wine Taster.

Oh, I used to be - leading player in the Oxford Wine Circle,organiser of tutored tastings, in training for inter-Varsity wine-recognition ompetitions..... even had a job selling wine for a while.

All a long time ago, and best forgotten now.

"ompetitions"??!!

God, my typing has got sloppy lately.

I need an editor. Moonrat? Moonrat?

And while we're on the subject (of rigour in one's written English), that probably should have been 'asexualism' in the last line. Might have to write a post about that....
