The weather this Gay Pride Palm Springs celebration has definitely been interesting. It's been cool, even rained and the sunshine hasn't really found its voice this weekend. It's been fine for me for I was able to wear this fierce scarf that my mother knitted out of rainbow yarn today at the parade. I had it draped perfectly around my neck and the compliments flooded my way. Thanks Mom! Plus I was able to talk about the silly things I saw from behind the knit blockade without anyone reading my lips. Last evening we hit a friend's huge party and then over to Arenas Road for their Block Party. After a quick pass through we had dinner call us away up the street to Zin where we enjoyed delicious cuisine and wonderful company with one another. We passed back through the Block Party afterwards to walk off the food and soon headed home where I crashed into bed immediately. No harm done. Palm Springs was festive all evening.
Today the Husband and I made it to the parade just as the beginning was reaching the end so we walked against it and ran into people along the way we knew and enjoyed the day out. Everyone was bundled up although a few individuals felt it necessary in wearing less that almost nothing. We got the point, but enough girl. Put some clothes on and save that for the White Party Palm Springs has every April. Just saying. We really didn't see any religious God-Hates-Gay sign holders so that was good. The day always brings up wonderful memories of past Gay Prides spent in other places and other times in my life. Even though it's Gay Pride every day where I work, World Gym Palm Springs, it's always fun to celebrate with the out of towers.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta starts tonight so I'm going to head into the viewing room and get ready. Good evening! I hope the parties were fun and you didn't let the dreary weather dampen your queer spirits. See you next year LGBTers. X
