Crap, Steph. I hope your back feels better soon.
I am watching last night's TDS and have just discovered that I have a massive crush on Josh Lucas. Damn the numminess is intense. I have watched the interview three times.
Also just called the gas co. to have them turn on my pilot light. They'll be here on Tuesday. At which point I will be a popsicle. Stil 49° in here.
I should go to IKEA and buy a mass of tealights. Nothing like twenty candles to warm the place up.
I thought this was a fascinating article.
Vincent's man-drag was good enough, as it turns out. Before writing this book, she spent a year and a half posing as a man and, insofar as she could, living as one. As "Ned," she joined a bowling league, went to strip clubs, entered a monastery, dated heterosexual women (and slept with one of them), worked a sales job and went on a men's-movement retreat, all without being discovered.

Ah. I just got busted for only reading to the cut, didn't I?
Ooh. You should get checks for Toto too.
And Toto, too? (sorry)
I need flexiril and a very large beer. Sadly, I only have the beer (at home), no drugs.
Oh Teppy, I hope you feel better, soon. If you called your doctor and begged for her/him to call in a Flexeril scrip, would you be likely to get it?
LJ is wonky for some of us. Their status page is saying they are working on a database issue.
Ugh. I had an interpersonal problem and asked my manager to talk to the other party, which she did on Wednesday. I came up today and asked how it had gone, and she said "We need to talk", but she can't see me till 1:30. Ugh.
Cass, I frequently do that with Salon articles, too.
