Patty update: has seen one place she liked, is seeing another today, a third fell through, all this should be resolved today or tomorrow. Patty assures me neither of them are in Splott (actually I am helping her make a decision right now). Meanwhile, it's cold and Cardiff has a cheese festival today at the Castle.

Dances of Vice: I missed Isengart's first set because a friend accidentally knocked two drinks onto my White Silk Gown that Marci was somehow able to save. Also we had the worst service at L'Express in EVER. Photos when I have them.

I'm up earlier than I want to be because no matter how tired I am my body won't let me sleep past 10am anymore. That's okay, there's some work chaos going on on one front, and some work stuff I need to do on another, and I need to go over to Marci's at four so we can alter my dress (which means I need to buy shoes first). Also, I NEED a haircut. Oh god. Transportation, Communication, Accomodation and Hair: someone is failing and it is me.

Cat sitter for my long trip resolved. Turns out I've found the best solution with the cats (keeping them in the apartment with someone living with them), saved myself money AND helped out a friend. So yay.

Man, I am really, really tired.

manycolored has a post about privilege that I thought was good.

A court has ordered that a gay air force nurse expelled under DADT be reinstated. First a court declares it unconstitutional, then this unrelated ruling, the various recent gay marriage decisions -- the courts are getting fed up with this shit while legislatures dither.

From neo-nazi to Orthodox Jew.

The Social Network is going to be SO GOOD.

20 minutes into the future is arguably here. I think I need one of these just on principle.

Meanwhile, my birthday is immanent, Patty's away and I've planned nothing. Should I plan something?

I already commented over there, but re: the 20 minutes link. I am utterly dismayed by how similar that device looks to my hearing aids. I do not want some random cop taking away my ability to hear just because I happen to be in the vicinity of a protest they don't like.

Oh that's really not good!
