ita, you'd LOVE Devi. I don't think she pays any attention to anyone but me, and only at set times.

and now I start the work on getting myself back on a 10 to 6 sleep time by going to bed. Probably a little HP readage. I suspect my off-norm sleeping today will not help in getting me asleep early.

I had a Very Nice day, with good people. I wasn't even hung over for most of it. Yay.

Devi is my favourite cat ever.

msbelle, I don't know if a Julia Stiles romcom can fix anything without a liberal application of Heath Ledger and a sprinkling of Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

turns out sappy romantic comedies not always what the dr. ordered. a GA would make me so happy. damn networks.

I know!

Chicken noodle soup (mostly teh broth) was consumed. So far, so good.

You'd love my cat Pico too. Clio on the other hand, is determined to win over the indifferent and allergic. She just wants to love everyone,

Yay Perkins!

ita, sorry I missed your other requirements. Good luck with the search. I gave up on having loose tea at work a while back, because of the cleanup issues.

Ooooh, Jewel Staite was in Da Vinci's Inquest back in 1998-2000 as Da Vinci's daughter. Cool.

I figure I'll have to compromise on the tea thing, or I'd have solved it a lot sooner.

Question raised by MHB: are tweener girls really that eager to be little conformers, and little boys rejecters and rebellers? The good boys and the bad girls are either much quieter or much more ignored by the filmmakers.

They're all cute, though.

4,000-Year-Old Egyptian Tomb May Contain World’s First Depiction Of A Gay Kiss…

What may be the first depiction of a gay kiss was discovered in a 4,000-year-old Egyptian tomb, according to a recent conference at the University of Wales.

Their arms entwined, their torsos and noses touching Niankhkhnum and Khnumhotep were painted together for eternity in an embrace usually associated with heterosexual couples of the 5th dynasty.

The official view by one of the world's most eminent Egyptologists, Zahi Hawass, is that they were brothers, perhaps even conjoined twins. Other eminent academics have also suggested the similarities in the names would suggest this to be the case and there is a danger that modern European eyes fail to resist the temptation of seeing the images as homoerotic. Nevertheless, the tomb has become a favourite for gay couples.

The "Tomb of the Hairdressers" or "Tomb of Two Brothers" as it has become known was in fact the burial place of King Niuserre's manicurists.

While the paintings do show wives and children, the two women are obliterated or omitted from a scene of a final banquet.

"Same-sex desire must be considered as a probable explanation," said Mr Reeder, adding: "We can only say for certain that the carvings show a profound intimacy between the two men, and the people who built the tomb were possibly unsure how to portray this."

I have finally seen the most recent ep of Project Runway. And I gotta say the producers actually found someone I dislike MORE than Wendy Pepper. I didn't think it was possible. And, oh, Daniel Franco. I never thought I'd say this but...I adore you, you little bliss-following, crazy-shuffling, fine-tailoring elf-man. If I had the funds, I'd hunt you down and make you design a whole new wardrobe for me.

I love my dead gay pharoah manicurist.
