I didn’t realize I was pretty backed up on my blog. I haven’t even gotten to my birthday yet! Lol. Well let’s get back on track so I can catch up. My memory isn’t so great anymore.
Following up my Thirsty Thursday happy hour session at Masada, I had no plans whatsoever so I decided to give myself an at-home pedi. My girlfriend from Providence called me up and we were chatting away when my other line kept ringing. I saw that my other friend was calling but decided to text her instead to see what was up. No response. I continued my conversation with my Providence friend when again, my other friend was calling. At this point I was worried something was wrong since she never responded to my text, so I told my friend to hold on while I switched over.
-Are you home??
-Yes! What’s wrong??
-Oh nothing. Get ready! We’re coming to pick you up. We’ll be there in 15 minutes!
WHAT THE?? I switched over to my other friend from Providence and told her what was going on. She got excited for me! According to my horoscope, she said I was going to have a great weekend. Oh my goodness. I really wanted to stay in, but I had no choice. My friends were downstairs in no time flat. Off we went.
We had a little trouble trying to find where all the action was. It was the weekend of Taste Of Randolph, but we knew we didn’t want to go around that area. We first hopped around a bit and finally settled on Underground. Luckily we got in right away and even found a table. We danced so much that nice that my feet were killing me the next day.
Even though this was an unexpected thing we pulled together at the last minute, we definitely made some memories that night!
After my long night out the night before, I took some time to rest up at home. I made plans with my friend to meet him in Lakeview so we could walk together to the Pride Fest. This is something new that started in Chicago about 2 years ago. They decided to make Pride month a little longer by having two events. The first is a neighborhood festival which occurs the weekend before the parade. The parade has always brought a large crowd regardless, and with the new addition of the fest, it helps accommodate everyone trying to join in on the fun. Me and my friend had a blast! I knew offhand that I wasn’t going to come to the parade so this fest was perfect. We went out afterwards to the neighborhood clubs and called it a night. I loved that weekend…
