I know, I know, I’ve never looked hotter right? (The hospital no-slip sexy socks are the best part). It’s fun to embarrass myself. How could I not post this picture?
Rules to follow when you are really nervous about going to do something, and you feel and look like crap:
1.) Have someone that makes you laugh so hard your stomach hurts bring you
2.) Give them your camera
Dear G~
I could not have asked for a better care taker. Thank you. I’m still laughing…
You all know I hate being radio silent because I get overly excited about the tiniest things and always want to share here. This week though, I’ll likely be a bit absent from here because of two reasons. Ironically one reason is super awesome, and the other super sucks. (It’s Ok, that’s the fun of the life roller coaster- right?:)
1.) I am waiting/working on a few bits of information from/with the folks I’ll be working with on an UBER exciting project starting in September.
2.) I have an appointment with a surgeon and his staff who I know so well at this point we will be sending each other Christmas cards this year.
Hang tight with me! All is well and I’m so insanely excited to share news as soon as all the lights are all green. It’s looking like that will be very soon.
Here’s to summertime fun and REALLY good things to come. Have a fabulous holiday weekend!
Yesterday was annual Pride Parade Parade Day and my first one in Chicago. It was quite an experience. After I attempted to get close to actually be able to watch the parade and got squashed in the crowd within 5 minutes, I opted to just wander the streets for a couple hours. There were thousands of characters, so even though I didn’t get to see many of the actual floats, there was plenty of entertainment.
As I walked in the direction of the parade, I saw bars and restaurants with signs of pride:
…vendors selling schwag to keep the sunshine way:
…people so excited to be in viewing distance they stood on porta potties:
…and some climbing on signs and poles wearing tutus and Speedos to get a look:
I saw a few floats and signs:
..and LOTS of colorful outfits. Meet Lauren:
She was all about me taking her picture. Then there was this lady dancing in her lime green spandex as the crowd at the bar cheered:
A couple guys thought less was more:
…and even prideful little cutie pie kids:
I couldn’t resist taking a couple videos after spying Tina shakin’ it:
…and a dance party in a Dunkin Donuts parking lot:
It was all a sight to be seen for sure and a fun day for people watching. If you’ve never been to a Pride Parade in a big city, add it to your bucket list.
Thanks Chicago, for making every summer weekend I have here packed with endless events to attend and interesting people to meet!
