Is that from Suetonius' Lives of the Caesars?

Uh huh.

My favorite passage is from Tiberius:
XLIVHe acquired a reputation for still grosser depravities that one can hardly bear to tell or be told, let alone believe. For example, he trained little boys (whom he termed tiddlers) to crawl between his thighs when he went swimming and tease him with their licks and nibbles; and unweaned babies he would put to his organ as though to the breast, being by both nature and age rather fond of this form of satisfaction. Left a painting of Parrhasius's depicting Atalanta pleasuring Meleager with her lips on condition that if the theme displeased him he was to have a million sesterces instead, he chose to keep it and actually hung it in his bedroom. The story is also told that once at a sacrifice, attracted by the acolyte's beauty, he lost control of himself and, hardly waiting for the ceremony to end, rushed him off and debauched him and his brother, the flute-player, too; and subsequently, when they complained of the assault, he had their legs broken

I have chores this weekend: groceries, laundry, cleaning, fill the gas tank.

But I also have a plan for fun: Today, visit some shops (including a record store), stock up on my wine and beer, and quaff a pint or two of local brew at my favorite pub(s).

Then chill with pup all day tomorrow with coffee, wine, music, and TV movies. Sound like a plan?

Friday nights my and I wife talk on the phone for an hour or two. The one night out of the week we both feel relaxed and free time-wise to do so. We usually toast each other over a glass or two of wine. So last night coincidentally we're drinking the very same wine!

Lily, did you go to Boredoms on 9/9?
