My Balcony Is A Block Party
So last night was Friday night but it was the Friday night of Pride Week, so the entire village was blocked off to traffic and for about 2 very long city blocks, with about 9 side streets packed in for good measure, it was one big party.
A couple stages set up with DJs spinning, people dancing in the street, lasers being bounced off the apartment buildings, really cool light shows, again being bounced off the side of the apartment buildings. It was a complete blast to see so many people coming together and just having a grand old good, or dare I say «gay», old time!
I stayed in last night, mostly because I was tired from whoopin it up the night before. Plus I need my energy for today (Saturday) and of course Sunday when the big parade happens.
There was one weird thing about last night though, as soon as the clock struck 11 (2300) all went silent. Bed time! Um ya about that! Not so much.
Well we, my partner and I, are just finishing our beer, opps I didn't even finish my morning coffee, and then heading out to get our T-Shirts printed that he designed for Pride, and then maybe do a bit of spot-shopping here and there for other odds and ends to pick up. Mostly, libations!
For the rest of you that are «Priding» it this weekend, please stay safe while you have fun!
