It's only fear that makes you run.....

Tuesday! Weigh in day! In a few hours I will know exactly how the ice cream affected my weight goal. But I'm feeling pretty okay about it. We'll see.....

So last night on my way home from work I encountered a super big jackass. Traffic was stop and go,and I was just driving along minding my own business. An old guy on a motorcycle in the next lane started screaming at me. I turned the music down to hear what he was saying. Apparently he saw my equality sticker and was yelling that I was a "homo" or a "homo-lover" and a whole bunch of other nice things. It took a lot to not turn my car into him and run him down. But I didn't. And I also didn't yell anything back because really, what would it accomplish?

I've never really had to deal with that sort of asshattery, and I really, really wanted to call him some horrible names. But the truth is that I feel kind of sorry for him. It must be horrible to have so much hate in your heart for someone you don't even know. I'm not gay, but I do support gay rights. And I'm nice to people who are nice to me. Wouldn't the world be such a better place if everyone could be nice to each other?
