T.J. being one of my two cats, of course, in case someone is new subscribing to my site – very doubtful – or you've been away for a while and thought I gained a sexual partner – even more doubtful – but alas, my youngest cat, who is celebrating his third birthday today. ♥
Exactly three years ago, the family went to go see Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, with one of our older cats being in labour. When we got back from dinner + the movie – a movie inwhich I missed every single Draco + Harry scene; not amused, bladder – T.J. and his sister and brother were born. The story is quite long, but it ended in our old neighbours randomly stating he was mine, and that they kind of weren't feeding him anymore (thus making me his owner, since I was already feeding him). I remember the time he woke me up giving me biscuits on my face, the time he watched Baby drink water like it was the most fascinating thing that had ever happened to the universe, the fifteen hundred times he and Dare did some not-really-biologically-possible-but-there-you-have-it deeds, and I still remember the first ever picture I took of him; I have it on my cockboard1!
For his birthday I gave him a can of wet food, which to our male cats is a treat. I also had him pose for the following pictures, but that was kind of for me rather than him. :P

So, yeah, Mayumi » is blogging. ON THE SAME DAY AS ME. Wonder of wonders! She's also blogging about her Lady Gaga concert adventures, and considering my love for Lady Gaga, that's just a win for me.
Point: let's go down the “Tess' stories are so boring, but they eventually have an ending, so I'll suffer” road!
I have a mantra, one that's been with me since 2005. It's from an

Songs of Tess: Placebo Collection

Apologies for skipping last week, though this is only for myself. I wanted to do it, and I had woken up with it on my mind, but completely spaced out the rest of the day. Go me!
And anyhow: you knew it was coming! :D
Continuing the Artist collection of “Songs of Tess”, Placebo is a british rock band, and my favourite of all time. Not only are their sexualities echoed in their music (the bassist is gay, and the leader singer is bi-sexual and very androgynous), but their music is no

Monthly dose of Just a Minute… »!
Reading… some fanfiction (nothing new there), and J.R. Ward's new book, Lover Mine. Great plot, wonderful characters, horrible butchering of the gay ones. I still keep coming back, though, so the woman is doing something right!
Listening… to Lorene Drive and Bri

Songs of Tess: Blood Brothers Collection
June 21st, 2010 – Filed Under: Music
Hey-ho, a “Songs of Tess” entry! Not that they are particularly interesting, but there you go.
I decided to go with the idea of choosing five songs per artists of the artists that have the most songs in my library. I don't have a library to do this, however – I briefly considered creating a script for it, but I'm much too lazy to do it at this point – so I decided to split it up in five weeks, and choose ten songs from each artist. Yay! for more crazy Tess music.
