Let's Try This Again - Happy Pride Weekend!

To all my Org GLBT (are there any T here?) friends and allies and especially those here in the Twin Cities...happy pride! It's not a thread to discuss the politics of the event, but one to celebrate the community; what is has become, and what it has the power and potential to be. To those heading to the park today, have lots of fun. I'll be working.
lol




I just read that Thelma Houston will be at the block party tomorrow. woot!

This just may be the first year I don't do anything pride related. Doesn't mean I don't love my gays though. smile

giggle Have you loved your gay today? I'm not doing anything specifically pride-related (other than being proud) this weekend either. Lots of work to do.

At least you have an excuse. I'm just not feeling social lately. And with the heat and sun and my delicate skin, spending hours in the park doesn't sound like too much fun either. As for the parties - I got awfully turned off at a Pride party I went to last year that devolved into debauchery in a hot tub right before my eyes. That was something a sweet, innocent girl like me shouldn't have to see. boxed

Did Darin send you the email our friend Joe sent detailing the "safe word" should such activities arise this weekend? giggle For our friends that are attending, once any of us girls see a penis or a bottom we are to walk to our nearest 'mo and whisper "vagina" as that will instantly sober them up. They will then round up the rest of our friends and quickly make an exit from said party. giggle Its a grand plan, but it's still just not in my heart to attend.

the best part is, I've been laughing so hard about this plan that no matter HOW DRUNK I get today, I think it will still work. I'll hear that word and run for the hills....

confuse

you know, I think that some publication must've posted bad info about the Block party cos you are one of many who have mentioned it being tonite...

The 'official' block party (with Amber, Thelma Houston and Kim English) is actually tomorrow from 5-10 in the Saloon parking lot.

that being said...we should plan for the parade! nod

That's a great photo! I love the shadow of Hohner and the glimpse of the fan -- makes it a real "Pride" photo -- evocative of the summer heat that's always a part of the mix!

Happy Pride, all!
let me come over it's a beautiful day to play with you in the dark
