Saturday
Went to Pride. Walked the entire parade with the CGMS float, and passed out over 1000 flyers for the performance. Had great responses from the crowd, and there was a LOT of honest to goodness support from the crowd. I felt a deep sense of purpose being there this year, with the chorus. And I could have been happier knowing that my daughte rwas there with me all the way. She rode on the float and took the job of passing water to those walking in the parade. I love my daughter so much.
We sang at the festival after the parade, then headed out in search of the shint, shiny shirt. Our first stop landed us a bright orange shirt for three bucks , and one our way to pay for it, we noticed an amazing black sequined halter top for 6 bucks. After careful deliberation, we decide d that it would work to combine the two into one amazing piece of clothing, and purchased both. A bit of running to Joann's and a side trip to DSW for Cathryn shoes later, we were finished with our shopping and back at Meagan's, working on the shirt and toga for the show.
Sunday
Surprise call from Rob in France. We talked for a good while, and had a wonderful chat, cut short by needs to be elsewhere on both parts. I will say just once that I sincerely adore having such a good friend, even if he is on the other side of the world.
Made lunch of brats and mashed potatoes for Cathryn, Marc and myself, then I buggered off for a 6 hour practice.
Stopped at Meagan's afterward, and OH MY GOD, the shirt looks fantastic. Words cannot express how much I love my friends. They made me look five times better than I really should. I'm going to need another reason to wear this shirt. Really. It's THAT awesoome.
Now, I'm about to head for bed. I have a week of working 8 to 5 ahead of me, with practices from 6 to 10. Friday and Saturday is the show.
Then I have vacation. Sweet, fun filled vacation.
I'll need it.
