Gay Pride and other distractions

...so I know it's been a while since I've posted. Would you believe me if I said I haven't had time? To sum it up, I've pretty much been partying my liver into oblivion. Sunday nights are blurring into Tuesday nights are blurring into Thursday nights - the only difference is what time I wake up in the morning.

Some of the stuff we've been up to:

Above: Matt and I met up with our good friends from home, Rock and Scott, to attend Rock's cousin's wedding. Note the wonderful bedazzling on Rock's bridesmaid dress - unfortunately you can't see the even more spectacular bow on the back. We've never been to a wedding in the US before and were pleasantly surprised by an open (WOOT!) bar. It was out in Long Island which took almost two hours to get there, and only 40 minutes to get back at 1am. Bloody NYC traffic.



Above: We also went to our first US Gay Pride last weekend which was a blast. Luckily we were invited by a friend we met at the wedding to watch the parade from another friend's apartment. This allowed us to escape the heat (and also have lots of food, lots of alcohol and most importantly - air conditioning). The amount of people out on the streets was crazy. After the parade we met up with friends in Chelsea and continued to pound our livers into a million little pieces.


Above: Riss and Steve representin' for my people. I'll let you guys comment on this...

Some of the other stuff we have comin up include:

  • Atlantic City this weekend for some major poker tournament action. We've both been in withdrawals (and it doesn't help that texas hold 'em is on TV almost every day)
  • My bday drinks @ Bamboo 52 a week from Saturday
  • Headin to Miami mid-July
  • Headin to San Francisco end of July
  • Puerto Rico in August, Montreal and London in September, Paris in November. Woot!

Song of the Day: "Rehab" - Amy Winehouse. I just realised the irony of having that as my song of the day...

Pregnant!

...so I just asked a friend if his wife was pregnant...and he said "Can I keep a secret?"

Can you guess who? :)

Song of the Day: "Flaunt It" - TV Rock

Cold

...so why is it always so cold in restaurants in the US?

They're freezing!

Song of the Day: "At The End of The Day" - Les Miserable soundtrack
