A Malaysian LGBT metablog is in the making, and I've been invited as designer and contributor. Some interesting (and new) names involved, not your usual obvious ones - except maybe, me. As you know, I can be very, very, public about being very, very, gay.

I'll keep you people posted - I've received emails from readers who occasionally felt like the only gay person in Malaysia, till they read on my blog that there's actually quite an active community (once you figure out how to tap into it, or use Google).

I guess in the mainstream blogosphere, I'm one of the few public, bent ones. Reckon having such a public, obviously queer metablog could be a great thing.

Speaking of gay - it's someone's birthday (happy birthday Elaine!), and she's organising an extremely lesbian-friendly event for this Tuesday night (I know I should have pimped it earlier):

(click on flyer for more details)

It's a Puss in Boots event, and if you want to go for any girly-events, PiB is one of the main organisers (and Attic one of the main venues). This is the show promo:

Step right up! Step right up! To the greatest music show on earth! Yeahhhhh - PiB@theattic presents - "the KL word" - a sexy, sassy night of tunes prepared specially from the back catalogue and inspired by our favourite lesbian tv show's original soundtrack. Bring your loved ones and lovers, friends and foes, your fags, their hags and sit back and watch the drama unfold.

I suppose if you love L-Word's soundtrack, and fellow lesbians, this event is pants-wettingly right for you (insert pun here). I'm probably going, quite a few of my friends are interested in this.

Anyhow, do go say hi and happy birthday to Elaine Foster on her blog: the loudgirl's passport: "A rough guide to surviving in a foreign land" or "a white girl in Asia".

Ended up staring at my cat's very heavy ass, as she shifted its weight around on my phone's button - effectively cutting off my conversation with Zahim Albakri just as I was bye and was about to ask him if he could finish up our interview for Cammies in a few days.

An attention-whore housecat is the best reminder that sometimes, an office environment's way more conducive for work.
