Gay Things
How bad is coffee? I know it’s bad for your teeth, and I know it can irritate your stomach and such, but is it bad for you in the long run? Is coffee one of those things that they go back and forth about? Sometimes it’s bad for you, sometimes it’s not? Someone tell me if it causes problems!
Last night I went with Christian to the Logo Awards at MTV. The room was very small, it’s the same studio they shoot TRL. I would guess maybe 60 people were there? Maybe more, I don’t know. I’m really bad at estimating crowds. Here’s Times Square from the roof, taken with my phone:
Our table during the show itself (three hours) was just us and Caroline Rhea and her boyfriend. She’s so funny… I had to admit that I still can’t bring myself to change the channel if I happen to stumble upon Sabrina. Actually, she brought it up! I don’t know why that show makes me feel so comfortable; I never watched it when it was current. Leona Lewis was milling around looking amazing and Michelle Williams introduced Lady GaGa who was insane and wonderful and ended her song with a confetti rain that I’m still digging out from my heres and theres. The Cliks and Dangerous Muse played, too, and they were both fantastic as usual.

Cyndi Lauper sat maybe five feet from us during the show, and was super nice when we met her. But her song! Oh my god, she did a new song called “Into the Nightlife” and she was AMAZING. I nearly let everything loose in my pants right then and there. Cyndi Lauper singing and dancing on a stage right in front of us in the MTV studios. It was one of those moments I wanted to call my mom because we used to listen to She’s So Unusual all the time. I won’t lie, I called her from the dressing room.

This was the first annual Logo NewNowNext Awards, and the first award was the one Christian was up for. So when he won, he won the first NewNowNext Award ever given out. And then later when he presented an award something happened… you’ll have to watch.
A couple more pictures after the jump…
Andrew and me killing time.
Christian and Carolina, who’s an old friend and just happened to be his wrangler:

all I know about coffee - because the health news runs pro/con so much - is for people with breathing problems (and eventually, I guess, if you think about it long-term, we all will eventually have breathing problems) - but mostly people with shortness of breath like asthmatics, etc. - a small amount of hot coffeee is very helpful in them being able to catch their breath. But then again (as one who has suffered from asthma - there are some medications that when taking coffee - you can be up for days (it happened to me when I had a severe asthma attack and was in the hospital - they gave me coffee and I was awake literally for 3 days - not a fun place to be awake) — this is way too long - sorry

your hair is looking very nice and swoopy these days.
what I’ve heard is that coffee is acidic, and acidic environments are more conducive to causing cancer. so I think you are supposed to drink it in moderation. sugar is also acidic, so it’s double bad if you take your coffee with lots o’ sugary syrups…

Mayo Clinic says coffee in moderation doesn’t hurt your health and may help it:

I also have a fascination with Sabrina reruns, but only while she was at high school and Harvey was around the place.

I just re-read the title of this post and it made me almost fall out of my chair because I was laughing so hard.

I stopped drinking coffee and switched over to green tea when my dad died. It’s better now that it’s warmer and I can just drink iced tea all the time, and I have 95% less heartburn [coffee] and am less frightened of getting cancer like everyone else in my stupid family [green tea!]. Tea is not nearly as tasty as coffee, though.
I love when D calls me up to tell me stuff like that, it makes my day every time. You are a good son.

[…] You may remember her from her wrangling talents, and you can watch the Logo Awards on June 7 to see her dance like a maniac for Cyndi […]
