I don't like walking. Can someone organize an NYC AIDS Slouch, please?

i've done it in the past a lot, but stopped because all my friends were still dying...now they're alive and on toxic cocktails.

actually someone i work with remotely is doing a cool fundraiser thing in Alaska this summer if anyone wants to donate--it's for Leukemia and Lymphoma Society
