Pride weekend

[omly]

Whew that was quite the weekend!

Since Tab was off with her father for the funeral, that meant both Roger and I worked late on Friday. Aren't we exciting? Then we went home, made dinner, and cleaned the house. *sigh* I feel old.

Saturday was full though. Roger went back to work while I was out and about. I went over to Harvard and knit for a while at the local Knit in Public event. This meant that I got to meet Guido from It's a Purl Man. He was really impressed by 's gloves, which are now almost complete. I just need to do the fingers and weave in all the *&%$! ends.

After that I went off to the Pride festival, which was very wet. I had considered not going, but how could I let bryttan down? I got a few comments on my diversity umbrella, which always makes me laugh, because it is just my regular umbrella. It is not trying to make a statement. While I was there I thought I would release 2 themed books, but it was so wet that I could not do so. I will probably release them later this week instead. Once the parade was over I ran off with thanos73 to go make the Spanikopita for a party he was hosting.

Sunday was a little slower. Roger slept in while I went to church. I picked up the music for a wedding that I am planning to sing at, which gives me slightly less than a month to learn it. Then I got a gift for the birthday party Tab was going to and wrapped it at home. We got Tab, dropped her off at the party, and went to Costco. I have my own card now! I wanted to get to the SnB in Ball Square, but due to a series of slow bus connections we got too late. Tab had come with me to knit too, so we were both disappointed. We will try again another time.

This week is the last full week of classes so it is really full too.

It was good to see you with the raindrops all congregating to your chair at Pride, though I will admit to some small wistfullness that I didn't see nekkid bike riding day being celebrated. :)

And the Spannikopita was good to!

I really should do these things more often and with out others help. As much as I like E&J I kinda wish I had the time to actually make it!

Sadly I saw no evidence that it happened in Boston, although I heard about it in many other areas. Granted, given the temperature and weather I wouldn't have wanted to be out doing it either though.

Sniff so I count as "others help" too? You should come over for dinner at some point. I still have a duck in the freezer that is way too much for just Roger, Tab and I.
