Does that seem out the blue? Sorry. But I'm a Keats girl too! I have a friend who just went to Rome, and I was telling her what I remembered about the sights there (I went 4 or 5 years ago)--and I was like, the Spanish Steps are lame, BUT! The house where John Keats died is right next to them--so it's worth it. She thought I was insane. (For the record, I also advised her to find the building where Dante first saw Beatrice in Florence. There's a plaque! Commemorating their first glance! I love that. Anyway.)
Also, I can recite Ode to a Nightengale any time you'd like me to.
But Ozimandias rocks. That poem wins a little of my love for Shelley. But wait. We're talking about Byron, aren't we? Huh. I don't know much Byron.
Also: That 70's Show. I went through a whole roller-coaster with that show. I loved it, then I was bored, then I loved it, then I hated it and wanted it to explode in a thousand pieces. Can you guess what brought the last step in that series about? Yep. The destruction of Jackie and Hyde. They were the only thing that made sense about that show. Or maybe not the only thing--but they made the kind of sense that lifts the rest of the show up. It made everything click into place. But no. We can't have that, can we, TV? Boo.
