I went to Chicago pride for the first time today with Alan (and mutual pal Ping, right) and it was terrific. We accomplished the following bits:
- free t-shirt
- free whistle
- too many beads
- dozens of condoms literally thrown at our face
- enthusiastically cheered for fake-Obama, real Anita Alvarez, ROTC and free-Brian-Manning floats
- awkwardly/uncertainly cheered for Hospice, anti puppy-mill, and anti-circumcision floats
- saw some buttz
- had a great great day
So, lesson learned: Pride Parades, theres no need to feel awkward, despite all the goofy fuckery
