A dilemma

I could keep chewing at Ninja Death Squad, trying to tease out a little more of the longing and the anxiety that ought to be in this particular scene.

Or I could climb into bed with my Nintendo DS and try to get my badge at the Veilstone gym.

Decisions.

The hard part is --

Trying to say what you mean to say in a way that's sincere and yet doesn't spill all the way over into something that's mawkishly sentimental, or lit up in green neon announcing itself as a THEME. Those are the sentences that I end up spending twenty minutes obsessing over. How can the right words be so hard to find?
