...and so am i :)
so pride weekend in toronto was INsane. not to mention my friends and i got to initiate some newbies, which always makes for good times.
i figured for those who don't do celebrations, or those who simply have none around them, i'd give a small taste of what you're missing out on... and believe me... it's soooo good.
FRIDAY
my bisexual roommate neil and i made our way down to the village for some partying. we ended up at about 5 different places, basically moving where the crowd moved. if a bar closed, we went to the next one, and so on. crews is always a fav though. it's definately good times all around.
and super plus to this weekend? i've never seen so many gays in one place, and believe you me, i love me some gays. :)
SATURDAY
so i started the day off roaming around with neil, then met up with my girls and we totally took it from there...
all of toronto was decked out in honour of pride. there were tons of street vendors and tons of people to mix, mingle & drink with. the boys got to have fun too... sailor always [naturally] being a favourite locale....however we preferred the beer tents.
...and really, with melissa ferrick playing a fucking FREE show, who wouldn't prefer the beer tent??? hells fucking yeah.
SUNDAY (parade day)
parade was slated to start at 2, so by 1-1:30 there was absolutely no view of the street (needless to say we got there rather early)
wouldn't be a real pride parade unless the dykes on bikes kicked it off!!!
gay christians, i love you.
...but i love these girls more. we have a habit of picking up the parade girls to party afterwards... oh yeah, we're that smooth. (including picking up an assistant from some random vet's office lol)
naturally, the queens were out in full force and looking exceptionally fab.
the crew from oz dropped in for a cameo.
..and the evil dead crew was spectacular (although it's unfortunate that the ladies were on the other side of the float) i just love the "gay" on the arm. that speaks volumes about the whole day for me :)
i like to call these fine ladies the mini-dykes-on-bikes... or the sexy chicks on mopeds... either or.
and that's about it for pride weekend. may not seem like much, but it was so much more. if you get a chance to make it out to your local celebration, i wholeheartedly suggest you go!!
in any case, i hope y'all celebrate your own pride in your own way!!
and if you're from the gta perhaps i'll see you at tangos sometime ;)
later all :P
