It has been gloriously warm the last few days, and is supposed to get over 60 by Tuesday. I am so happy! I bought flowers at the farmers' market this weekend- a pot of daffodils and a pot of red tulips- and they're just starting to bloom; it's lovely. Generally I am incapable of keeping houseplants alive, but I figure if I can manage to keep these around at least until the flowers fall off, it will still be longer than a bouquet of cut flowers would have lasted, and was just as cheap.

The guy who sold them to me had been getting his picture taken by someone when I came over to pay; he came over with me to the cash register as the other guy told him to come back after, because he wanted another photo. "I think he likes me!" the plant-owner said to me, and I just laughed politely. "I mean, likes-me likes-me! What do you think? Yes or no?"

"I don't know!" I said, incredibly amused at these two older guys, in their late forties or early fifties, acting like high school students. "But I don't get strangers asking to take my photo."

Random things I have discovered on the internet: Jonathon Rhys Meyers, who I have several icons of, including the one I'm currently using, because I pretend he could play Alec, was in the remake of The Lion in Winter. Which means he actually acted out a scene wearing old-fashioned clothes and seducing someone named Richard (the relevant part starts about two minutes into that clip, but I don't know how to make it skip ahead). Too bad the personalities are entirely wrong and that everyone is such a bad actor (or maybe they only seem like it, since the poor boys have to compete against the original The Lion in Winter); I still so pleased that this exists.

Right now I have strawberries and wine and am going to go take a bath; what are y'all doing this fine evening?

Really? I've heard him referred to as a gay icon more than once. "Velvet Goldmine" was his breakout movie.

Sure, but he's straight and he's getting a bit sick of it apparently. There were no end of bitchy remarks from him in various media around the time that Oliver Ston'e Alexander was coming out. Maybe he's grown up since, but it really annoyed me.

That might explain this.
