judecorpI feel like I haven't gone out in ages. I mean, I go to the movies, and I go out to dinner, but I don't really go out and be social. The last time I went out for real was when I went to that bar in Chelsea to have a mini-reunion with some people I went to college with. Before that was I don't even know when. It's frustrating, because I used to go out all the time. I remember a time when it was not uncommon for me to go out to several places with different people, and make plans after plans. It was kind of nice, especially because when I have down-time I tend to fill it with malaise.
Daina called to see if I/we wanted to go to Summit for the Camp Sunrise fundraiser. I was all kinds of excited about it because Jen and I went last year and had a really good time, and I ended up running into a whole bunch of people that I hadn't seen in a long time - people I knew from Big Gay Work or from other random things. It has been so freaking long since I did anything social in the community - probably Pride, I'm guessing - and I miss it. I don't really have any desire to be one of those people that clubs all the time, or only goes to queer spaces, but once in six months is not enough. So I asked Steve (who was with us) and Jen, and they both said they wanted to go. I made the mistake of anticipating it, though, because first Steve told me he was only kidding about wanting to go, and then Jen said she didn't want to go either. I tried to call Daina a couple of times to see if she was there, because I would have gone by myself and met her there, but she didn't answer her phone. So here I am. 11:30 on a weekend night and I'll probably go to bed soon. Like last night. And last weekend.
I am starting to become one of those people who whines in journals. I'm an emo bitch. Yay. Maybe I just perpetually wish I was on vacation. Maybe I need to find that "vacation space" in my head so I can tap into it on regular occasions.
Today I went through my health insurance company online to check the names of some counselors I know. (Well, not know /personally/, but know by reputation.) Next step is to find my policy and see what all is covered, so I don't get screwed with an enormous bill. And then... to make the calls.
Something needs to change soon. And not just this damned weather.

Date: 2004-01-10 09:22 pm (UTC)I wasn't interested in going out either, yet I come home and 5 minutes later I'm bored. Go figure...
I tried to convice Jude and Jen for coffee and games tomorrow. If they do decide (they can be sooo capricious) to attend, you're more than welcome to join us too!

Date: 2004-01-10 11:44 pm (UTC)It was packed, we actually got turned away and came back later. We had lots of fun though. Maybe it's good you didn't come, you missed me singing drunk with my friends. But you get to see me sing sober. :)
I'm sorry I did't answer my phone.

Date: 2004-01-11 10:02 am (UTC)I saw both of your pics (I think the other is Jen) in the paper this morning, so I thought I'd say hi. :-P I haven't been up to going out either, but then again, I NEVER am. Hope you're feeling better...
