Mail order biker chick

Supposedly it's spring time now, although you wouldn't necessarily get that from the weather we've been having but calendar says it is and if the lightness of my mood is any indication, it definitely is. As there are no lesbians in Forssa that I can see, nor do I think there are any biker chicks that are into women, I think I should order one from the mail? The increasing sun and slowly warming temperatures just make me feel like I should be on a bike. And since I don't own one, nor do I have the drivers license or the means to get one, the logical conclusion is to have a girlfriend who has one, right?

I went to body pump class today in my brand new Forssa Pride Party 2.0 training shirt. I originally was only gonna wear it for the 10k in June, but after talking with a friend she made me realize it would be a good way to advertise as well, since my gaydar peeps at some of the people there. Yesterday I also took a poster to my gym after the owner gave me a green light and it's the first thing you see when you enter the place. Hard to miss. I love it!

I went to Pirkanmaan Seta's english speaking rainbow group on Monday after missing it for the past 6 months and I gotta say, I felt and still feel the energy burst I got from talking with those guys. It's like the best possible pick-me-up and I feel sorry for the people who are sitting at their homes rather than finding the courage to come to our meetings in Forssa. I understand that I'm out and totally ok in my skin and that's not the case for many gays out there but still...As a closeted or questioning LGBT person living in Forssa area, there are no resources to help them accept themselves other than the internet and whatever information and friends you are able to find from chat rooms, message boards or tumblr. And then there's our Gay Cafe and the bi-annual Forssa Pride. And going to Forssa Pride if you're closeted is a huge step that not many is willing to take. We could help them find themselves or at least work towards that and if they are not taking this opportunity to use us now, it might be too late next fall. And I cannot emphasize the validation and joy you get from speaking with a like-minded people who understand what you are going through, what you are feeling and how terrifying it can be.

Volunteering at FSMS has brought new dimensions into my life and some people I might have not met was I not involved with this organizations. They are doing an amazing and selfless job that not many is willing to do. And tomorrow we're gathering for a spring welcoming meal together.

Forssa Pride Party 2.0 is 2 days away and I hope to see some of my readers there. If any of you are coming, could you come and talk to me and tell me why you are reading my blog? I'd really like to know.
