Cynthia Nixon On Being Gay: 'For Me It's A Choice'

jennlevo:

hmmm…
She’s got a point, we do have a choice with who we sleep with and how we wish to be defined. You can choose to sleep with men or choose to sleep with women. One choice will make you happier and leave you feeling honest and full-filled, and well… one might not. But, you do have a choice. 

I mean just because I was born with a natural tendency to eat doesn’t mean I have to, it’s my choice to do so.

Everything is a choice. Right?

There are only two things that are not choices:

  • Occupy Space
  • Die

Me: What kind of sandwich do you want in your lunch?

Her: PB & J, please.

Me: You got it.

Her: Do you have jelly?

Me: No, I’m just going to pour juice on your peanut butter sandwich.

Her: Daddy.

Me: What? Your friends will be so jealous. It’ll be a peanut butter and jealous sandwich.

Her:…

I bought my WAHL beard trimmer almost 10 years ago.

Some of you may think this is a joke, given my sparse growth. It is no joke.

I used my dear WAHL so much - I relied on it. Shaping, smoothing, and for the last few years it kept a perfect length on my pseudo-beard.

But this morning, for the first time for the last time, I dropped him. He hit the tiles, and shattered into a million (or two) pieces. Tiny bits of plastic smashed apart, never to be joined again.

And in an instant, he is gone.

What a crapper of a way to end the year.
