Things have been pretty busy and ramping up with fun-ness, due to summer finally arriving (yay!). My past few weeks have been filled with a menagerie of birthday parties and cocktails and kickball games and evening bicycle rides. I heart summer. And, in a lot of ways, I don't wish it was like this ALL year long, because there's no way I/Chicago would appreciate it as much if it was. It's like this special nugget of time where we get to be silly and summery.
So, I've been doing some of my most favorite things like riding down to the farmer's market on saturday mornings and going for bike rides and having beers on outdoor patios and eating tomato sandwiches for lunch every day! Plus, our kickball league is in full swing now, so Sundays just got a little more Sunday Funday with lots of 20-somethings playing kickball like 10 year olds and drinking beer on the field.
The pride parade was also yesterday which is always a favorite of summer for me (and about the only time of the year when I have a bascially 100% sugar fruity cocktail because...when in Rome!) I usually take gobs of photos, but just spectated this year and enjoyed myself. Though it did rain and, in this gals opinon, drag queens and rain do NOT mix. But the show must go one, and it did! For several hours! I was still hearing the bass pumping around 11 when I went to sleep with my sugary belly-ache and tired kickball legs :)
I'm looking forward to this short week and a long weekend of relaxin and maybe some fun in the sun!
