- i usually go running on a treadmill, especially since moving here. last night, i went running at tempe town lake. the scenery was beautiful (sun devil stadium, a bunch of new condos etc). even though the lake is more of a canal, the humidity coming off it was almost unbearable! it's amazing what a little water will do.
- speaking of running; i'm not sure why, but i can run alot further / longer on a treadmill than i can outside. i don't think it's the weather, because it's always been like that. i've talked to other people for whom it's the other way around. i guess it just depends what you're used to.
- i have an appointment next week to get more zoloft. woot. i don't think i'm dependant on it, but it sure helps with the social anxiety, especially since i'm in a new place and don't really know anybody. i think i've been doing okay, but i'll probably feel a lot calmer once i'm taking it again.
- flipping through the channels last night, i saw a q & a session with the democratic candidates on logo. i was expecting the panel to fawn over the candidates. it was rather refreshing to see melissa etheridge jump down hilary's throat. she talked about what a 'hopeful time' it was for the gays when bill was elected, and how his administration 'thew them under the bus'. it was funny.
- speaking of politics; why is it just assumed that gay people are liberal? the panel on logo wasn't representative of who i am. i identify more with middle of the road straight people than angry loud militant lesbians. i doubt logo will provide any airtime to the log cabin republicans.
- been trying to meet some people lately. ive managed to meet two people that i can at least hang out with once a week and play a game of pool or something. it's slow going, but i realize these things take time.
