Stonewall and else

I don't post enough; I can never make myself post and I guess I'm not really that interesting anyway :P

I went to the Stonewall festival (gay pride parade), but I think most of my friends in the area were away at Anthrocon so I didn't see them. I helped set up the Raelian booth and had burned them some cd's to hand out. I sat there with them and chatted with the pro-choice booth next to us and some other people, then walked around. One of the people was dressed in what looked like militant garb and talked about Jesus a lot to us, but I think we may have frightened him as much as he frightened us. I'm not sure Jesus would approve of associating his peace and love philosophy with a militant look, but the whole 'Christian soldier' concept is surprisingly common. One of the Realians marched in the parade with one of our crazy signs, but I wanted to watch it because this was my third year and had never actually ~seen~ the parade. I've always been in it with one group or another instead of seeing it. There were a surprising number of churches in the parade, and that made me really happy even though I wasn't personally interested in them. I was tempted to go down and stand with the bigots to see what they did when the more level headed churches (or even better, the politician floats) passed them.

I need to meet more people in the area, and am also looking about for a new place to live that might be closer to work so I can spend less gas. As annoying as it might be to some people, I've been driving 55 mph on the way to work, which increases my gas mileage 8 to 10 mpg. I really hate peeving others on the road, and don't understand why they choose to ride my bumper when there is one or two clear lanes to pass me with, but I am wanting to save money for other things.

Anyone looking for someone or a roommate? I thought about moving somewhere different than Ohio too, but it'd have to be with someone I am sure of and I'd need to find a job before I actually moved because I don't want to afford being jobless more than a week after a move.
