Maybe it was because of my display of gluttony last night with that flaming cr�pe... but I felt poorly all day today. I couldn't leave the house... not even to join Chris Harding, Nelson and the rest at a Krewe of Barkus (the dog parade) party.

Philip and I stayed on the sofa, watching television... from THE HANGING GARDEN on dvd from netflix.com to SHANGHAI KNIGHTS on cable.

The best part of the day was when I got Philip to lay on top of me. I love feeling his weight on me when I'm ill. It strengthens me, somehow.

THE SIMPSONS was good... the second to last episode of SEX AND THE CITY was kick-ass, as usual (thank goodness they showed Jason Lewis partially nude again).
