Where are all the Lez girls?

So, this new place that my girlfriend and I moved to, seems to be very lesbian/gay friendly. However, it seems as though all of the lesbians are hiding. It's been about six months since we've moved, and we have only met older lesbians; which is great, however we would like to meet people our age. We've been to some of the lesbian hot spots, like bars, and community centers, however, people seem to be so clicky. Is is awkward to just walk up and introduce yourself to a group of girls, when all you are really looking for is friendship? What do you say??

So, ultimately, my question is...Where are all the lesbians in Milwaukee???

Just the beginning

Blogging is such a new thing to me. This is the first time I have ever written a blog, or even explored and read other blogs. I am not sure what I am exactly trying to get out of this, but I figured I would give it a try. I have not picked up my journal in a long time, and I have been wanting to write lately, so here I am, trying something new. I don't really know what to say about myself. I am still finding out who I am. I love the journey, even though it's very hard at times. I can say though that I found someone that I love sharing everything with. I have never really felt so complete, and I can say it's a wonderful feeling. Not that it matters all that much, but I am in a same sex relationship. I moved to a new place to be with my girlfriend. It's nice being in a new place, and I am trying to be open to trying new things, and putting myself out there. Although I haven't been great at that yet.

Another huge part of my life is being Vegan. I read this book once called the China Study. It's all about the health benfits of a plant based diet, and its actually pretty incredible. I am now, trying my hardest to work on becoming healty and loving my body, and feeling great. However, it's pretty hard when all I want sometimes is a huge vegan icecream sundae! Oh, and also a side of chocolate. I think if I allowed myself sometimes, I could eat all day, and never feel full.

Anyways, I am going to get off, I am a teacher and the kids are waking up from their nap. I hope someday some people stumble across this blog and read all I have to say. I think I've had a pretty interesting journey.

Peace!
