Monday Monday Monday
Kittens, I say this every year, but I think I’m too old to party three days in a row for Pride. In fact, I know it. My body won’t stop yelling it at me this morning. But, still, totally worth it. Though, I made the rookie mistake of leaving my watch on while out in the sun and festivities all day yesterday. So I’ve got awesome screw-on hands today. Other fun things that happened at Pride? New York passed gay marriage. Equality is the best reason to party, period. I met Tegan & Sara. They were casually selling merchandise at the Revel & Riot booth all day. It was fun to watch the wave of recognition as the gay ladies passed by. Oh, wait, are they…HOLY CRAP. I also met my very talented AfterEllen colleague Lindsey Byrnes. Super cool gal who is excellent at finding funnel cakes. And, let’s see what else? Cocktails. Dancing. Rainbows. You know, the usual. But because of that I’m a wee bit exhausted today. So in lieu of a full post, please enjoy 10 minutes of everyone’s favorite closet lesbian and straight-up bitch Santana Lopez doing what she does. Can you believe I only saw one “Lesbanese” T-shirt all weekend? Hope you all had a happy Pride, too. Now, who else wants a nap?
Well that was an entertaining video! As for 3 days of Pride partying, I'm there with you. Last Monday was hellacious. I am far too old for 3 days of parties in Denver. I went to the Women's Pride party on Friday, the Girl Pride (but still women)party on Saturday, the Pride parade and festival on Sunday. But then I hit the wall and had to stop before the Sunday after Pride parties started. I just couldn't do it. And despite stopping "early," I still paid for it on Monday...sigh.
ReplyDeletePS. Yay for New York!
Considering that it's the Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots it really should be a gay holiday.
ReplyDeleteTonight I will raise a toast to all who came before us. A very heartfelt thank you with much love, respect and PRIDE
Yay gay! We are partying hard in NY.
