Dude. I can't beleive I stopped taking the core. It's just been so expensive in London. As soon as I get back to Canada I'm stocking up on ingredients.

Ignoring the bulk of what's written above because I feel that I have a point to make that may or may not be interesting (sorry about this), I'm glad that you brought up Oedipus.
I was thinking about the Greek myths the other day (which doesn't happen often) and it struck me that it's possible the most frequently referenced Greek myth - that being the story of Oedipus - is also very frequently misunderstood.
Oedipus gouged his eyes out once he realized what he'd done. People tend to forget/ignore that part.
Oedipus' nasty fate had been fortold. He could have, quite fairly, blamed his actions on his unfortunate fate and accepted no responsibility/felt no guilt for them. But he didn't.
You go Oedipus.
And here's suggesting that, if our generation is to continue clinging to Oedipus' story, this be lesson we glean from it.
