In addition, the psych med Seroquel can not only cause weight gain very quickly but can raise your cholesterol and triglycerides to dangerous levels. I learned this the hard way. Before going on it, I had my blood work done and my levels were perfectly normal. Within six months, my levels had shot through the roof and I had put on twenty pounds without eating more than I normally did. I immediately called my prescribing doctor and weaned off them. Be careful with psych meds and their side effects. And thanks, Tiger for bringing up this topic.
The Hard Way
Ricky stared out the large window of the bus station for what felt like the hundredth time in the past two and a half days. He watched the people outside the slightly tinted glass as they scurried to get their luggage and bags into the right hands and board their designated bus before it departed without them, a faint smirk of amusement on his lips that didn’t lighten his hard blue eyes any at all. The freedom he’d been feeling before when he’d arrived here on one of those sam
Saying Goodbye
Ricky Thorne leaned back in the desk chair and stared at the sleeping form on the bed just a few feet away, the burning end of his cigarette brightening in the shadows just outside of the nightlight’s glow as he took a slow draw from it. The kid always slept with a nightlight and Ricky knew that even at fourteen, Randy was still scared of the dark. Ricky knew firsthand how much there was to be afraid of after the lights went out but he also knew that his little brother didn
Ricky leaves his past behind hoping to find a better future. When he joins forces with Snow, a young male prostitute, he thinks he may have finally found greener pastures. Can love survive the evils of drugs and sex for sale in a city full of temptation, corruption and madness?
I really like HIM and have twice missed my chance to see them live (still kicking myself in the butt for that). I actually like Ville's grungy an natural looks, too. He's a very sexy man and his voice clinches the deal!
I cried when I saw The Elephant Man, too. Great movie.
Beaches was on last night on Oxygen. I couldn't watch the end, though. Wasn't in the mood to cry.
Tell him to try tanning. Even a few short minutes of those rays do help. I know they make a light box as well for people who suffer from SAD. He could ask his doctor about that. Good luck!
That was a very thoughtful reply, Graeme. It brings to my mind another aspect of marriage that most people seem to expect (at least in straight marriages) ... the idea that because you get married it must automatically mean you want to have children/'start' a family.
I'm sorry, but for me, my husband and myself ARE the family. We chose to marry because we love each other and wanted to show our love, not because we want to have children. Just thought I would add that.
It's a shame that it's like that but I think people need to be smart, like you and your partner have been, and spend the money to have your affairs in order. You shouldn't have to fight for what is rightfully yours. Unfortunately, things are still messed up and you have to protect yourselves.
As for ceremonies, no one can stop anyone from having that whether gay marriage is legal or not. It's a celebration!
While it may not have anything to do with the law as far as commitment goes, if you're in a committed relationship and you're gay, you DO have to take the law into consideration in the places gay marriage isn't recognized. I'm speaking in terms of property, children, wills, and things of that nature. It's important to be prepared with legal documentation just in case.
Going back to Trevor's original question ... Love all the way!
