I just got back from a a day trip in Harrisburg. I was lobbying a few of the senators on domestic partnership benefits. Responses ranges from a democrat who didn’t know what DP benefits were to the chair of the appropriations committee telling me he is for limited gay rights. I really need to just move the fuck away from this country, and start a new life. The people on the trip annoyed the piss out of me. Sean is insane. I think he is crazy and irrational. He just yells, and can’t handle himself in public. Trevor, annoying know it all, who I could talk circles around. Nick is just dumb, who I am sure wasn’t prepared.
I wish i was a better lobbiest. The senators don’t take me seriously and i still have a respect for authority. I just can’t be mean to old men, even when they are biggots.
Tomorrow I have an appointment with Mary Jo. I am going to talk about last friday, and how I just can’t ruin these kids weekends. I guess I am not revolutionary the people want. I wish I was better at fighting for the cause, but I am a beurocrat plain and simple. I like it and someone needs to do it.
Also, while I was stoned i told the girls it would be better for my family if Grandma Frieda was dead. And afterward i really do believe it. She makes my dad suffer and stress so much, it would be so much better if she were not around. She is crazy, and i am so very grateful i got out of there when I did.
