Thanks for all the tips. I have a small goal (in my eyes) but a larger goal of actually getting in shape (which I started). I got a trainer. As I told him, it is more just for having someone waiting for me so that I have to go (particularly if it is a handsome, really hardbodied trainer - well, I did not tell him that part.) My greatest obstacle (this is a lie I know) is being Italian for which giving up pasta and bread is like spitting on the Italian flag. But I actually do not mind whole wheat pasta, particularly if you make your own sauce where you control the sugar, etc. I also love potatoes but perhaps I can eschew them as an anti-Irish thing. I have never eaten sugary stuff and always have some sort of fruit with every meal just to fill up. Another goal is to drink a lot more water.

So far (and unfortunately I tend not to pay too much attention to the state of the market) I have really old state of the art drugs for epilepsy and blood pressure. I hate asking my doctor anything about treatment and its correlation with money. I am sure they get sick of hearing about insurance. But those days are over. It is such a big part of everyone's life that there is always a balance involved. I am in the boat with you and Truvada is the only "exotic" thing I take (that I'm aware of). I guess as I get closer to going on Medicare I will have to have a discussion with my primary about which of the meds are "new fangled" and which ones not. God save us all. I wonder how they do things in Britain, France, Italy, etc?

That's one fucking loaf a' man. Or am I just hornier on Fridays?

OMG! Actually I am so glad that you brought that up. I was counting down the days that I had left until I am able to get on Medicare because of the large amount I have to pay for insurance but I really did not take into account the amount I will eventually have to pay for prescription drugs. Actually, most of my current prescriptions (as far as I am aware - except for Truvada) are old time drugs that I believe Medicare will cover. Then it believe it will be whether I want to incorporate other drugs into my daily routine. Any way thanks again for the heads up.

Funny and touching. Times have changed. My dad never talked to me, much less hugged me.

I noticed on RentM that Brodie Scott was going to be in PS that weekend but do not know if he planned on going to any of the festivities (planned or otherwise).

You're somebody if you are photographed by Cecil Beaton and incredibly lucky.

The father couldn't have just confiscated his phone and refused to give it back. If the son bought another one then suggest he find other quarters. He was 18 after all and could make his own choices, including where to live. The father has a right to tell the son to find alternative housing. He does not have the right to mutilate his son.

I am not sure of the ramifications of the doughnut hole but in my case the manufacturer pays my copayment and then because the drug is so expensive and the copayment high I use up my out-of-pocket requirement pretty quickly. Then I have to pay nothing for my medications. So Truvada works to my advantage with no know side effects. I sort of do not want to go off it both because I do not want to admit that I probably am not going to have rampant unprotected sex and financially it works in my favor. Also as I mentioned, because I have other medications I am required to take every day it is not hard to recall to take it. It goes in the box with the others.

Actually, taking the tablets every day does not bother me. What I find onerous (maybe its shallow) is that, at least under my insurance, I have to speak with a pharmacist assistant who calls every month. The assistant asks different questions and then based on that only a 30 day supply is sent. With my other meds I get a 90 day supply each time. So I guess an injection would become better for me.

I think he may be entering that "just go away . . . PLEASE" category.

That's a snuggle.

Thank you, very nice of you. But really, really bored of them. Go and live your lives . . . away from the cameras.

Jack, it is, it is.

Well, you can infer it from a couple of things (like him not wanting to talk to the father about it) so I don't think more needed to be added to "fill in the blanks." But everybody has their bar. Thanks for your insight.

I guess. But if I am a kid his age who never has conversations with his dad and his dad opens the one he is going to have with him with "I've been meaning to talk to you" he might assume that it was going to be about the most embarrassing thing that could be talked about. So he would know it is about masturbation/sex.

They definitely would have made a hot couple. At least in one's imagination.

OMG!!! I saw the same thing happen at the Palm Springs Sat. night dinner last year. I think it was over an insult to some overly done eyeshadow.

I am going to have to get my niece hook me up because I decided that I absolutely have to get some. It is funny (ironic) because I probably could get authorized to get medical marijuana. My family all says how great that is because it doesn't "even make you feel high." The problem is (if it is a problem) that I want to feel high. So I am resorting to going thru my niece who offered to "connect" me before (it is a somewhat funny story). I stupidly said "no."

Ready and "More Than Willing."

A new kind of mermaid. Or at least, my kind of mermaid.

Now this is a cute couple.

I'm surprised there are no pics of our own Mr. TB. There are plenty of nice, sexy ones out there in many different locals. Maybe he could furnish one or perhaps we will have to get one in Palm Springs.

Two of the best in porn in one flic. Totally agree about the acting, not that it mattered!!!

Oh, I feel so bad for you. It must be so hard.
