This is What We Do When We Are Blue

 
 

Can I Park My Unicorn Out Front?

I'm here, Christy. Would you like me to make some tea and a bowl of fruit?

Little Candi's Sticker Collection

I remember getting this homemade Spanish churchy sticker at a summer campmeeting of the Church of God from a strangely adult-seeming young girl recently back in Indiana from South America where her parents were missionaries.

It Turns Out Teachers Are Not Perfect

Sunny's teacher told her that an apology wasn't enough to make up for hurting her friend's feelings today. I have to say that I very respectfully disagree. Sunny's heart was broken after school because she knew that she really can't do anything but offer her apology. I mean, really, beyond some strangely contrived act of attrition--like writing a book about dinosaurs and dedicating it to him. And she's dutifully engaged in writing that book now instead of doing her homework because she feels guilty.

Oh I Can't Have Nice Cookbooks!

CANDI: What a goooooood puppy. Gooooooooood boy. LENNY: I'm going to eat one of her cookbooks after this.

Post-it From a Pusherman

Since the mid 1990's "AK" strains have been increasingly popular. The Nirvana AK-48 is a strong early finishing version. Its Ice mother has ancestors of Afghani, Skunk, Northern Lights and Shiva stock. An intense selection process drawing from thousands of plants was used to find this special mother. Ice flowers are richly covered in trichomes and have a dense consistency. She has a high flower-to-leaf ratio, with buds forming along her main branches. The father is Jock Horror, a three-way hybrid that combines genetics from Northern Lights, Skunk, and Haze. The Jock Horror is a heavy resin producer and an early finisher with a unique fresh flavor and a potent upbeat buzz.

Tim Gunn and Morrissey Should Host a Loveline Episode for People Like Me

Project Runway's Tim Gunn: "I Haven't Had Sex in 29 Years!"

For nearly three decades, Tim Gunn has been celibate. During an appearance on ABC's The Revolution Tuesday, the 58-year-old Project Runway mentor revealed that he hasn't "had sex in 29 years."
Gunn, an openly gay man, said he doesn't feel like "less of a person" because of his non-existent sex life. "I'm a perfectly fulfilled person," Gunn explained. "But it's very physiological."
The Lifetime star, who is also an expert on The Revolution, fought back tears as he explained that his former partner of six years "was impatient with my sexual performance," prompting him to become abstinent.

Gunn added that he doesn't believe sex is the most important factor in a relationship. "I'm happy to be healthy and alive, frankly," he said.
