More Beautiful Than Most? Your Higher Salary Makes You Happier I think it's kind of funny that this is news - we've known for a long time that kids who are better looking get better grades whether they deserve them or not, and more chances offered to them. All any one person can do to cash in on this trend is to buy into the beauty market and/or diet/exercise. I've tried to motivate myself to exercise because I'm more likely to get a raise or a better job if I'm thinner; it doesn't work well as a motivator. At least for me.
Men Who Cuddle More are Happier I have to wonder how much this study is skewed by the fact that "Couples had to be living together for at least a year in order to take part in the survey," but still it's interesting that their conclusion was that men actually like cuddling more than women do. (I actually got this one via lacrimaeveneris and it led me to the previous one.)
And via daegaer, Nancy Wake's obituary - seriously, why is she not the hero of a series of adventure movies?? Why does she not guest star in an Indian Jones movie??Why is there no Nancy Wake femmeslash? Or is there?
So, I've been reading all this stuff and not getting anything done. Had a cider and cooked mac and cheese. It's a good evening. :)
ETA: Realized after I posted this that it's really a lie - I did deliver The Letter to the post office, you know, the one that's supposed to fix everything with our mailboxes? I heard the guy say "I know what this is about." He did not come out to tell me whether this really would fix anything.
