Once upon a time, there was a "sulkygirl" who lived in the Great State of Alaska (where she met the asshole she currently refers to as her "husband", thank you very much, but that's another story)... On June 21st of every year, the Sun would go down at 2 a.m., & rise again at...

So, are we talking "gay", as in "happy and gay", or are we talking "gay" as in "non-heterosexual"??

I've found out (the hard way) that being honest & truthful sometimes hurts the folks around you far more than the average "white lie".

Sometimes, you HAVE to lie to save people's feelings, to avoid mental & emotional disaster.

The truth hurts.

I couldn't agree more.

Plus, his range is very similar to my own, which makes it very easy for me to sing along!
