Well Pride weekend has come to a close and I managed to stay alive throughout the day on Saturday. The day started early, with Matt, Chris, and I leaving my apartment a bit after 8 to T it to Bryan and Peter's for brunch. Chris and Matt did the fruit while I prepared the smoked salmon frittata. The food was all delicious, though I must say I was underwhelmed by my own dish.

At least my whale looked decent. I think my two favorites were Bryan's ham salad and Adam's 'sticky bottoms', delicious sticky buns made with puff pastry and chocolate instead of raisins.
We headed to the parade at noon, just missing the dykes on bikes. *tear*. I was again surprised at how "towny" the Boston parade is. There are a shit ton of gays here, why such a lame parade? I had fun nonetheless and afterwards walked over to Adam and Bob's, where I spent the rest of my evening. Pride Punch 2.0 was consumed, music was played, and a grand time was had by all.

Perhaps the highlight was reenacting the opening scene from Wicked, complete with light changes, bubbles for glinda, a green elixir, and a few other fun props. Matt and I headed out 11ish, hoping to go to Dwight for Kristen's party, but I didn't realize it was just a pre-game and they were already en-route to Hennessy's. Despite my proximity to the establishment, I declined. I'm really just becoming disinterested in going out to bars, particularly ones of that kind. Besides, I had been drinking for approximately 14 hours.
Today has been fairly low key. I really just need to detox from all the shit I've eaten recently, but that didn't stop me from eating delicious lahmajoun, zucchini and roasted pepper salad, and rose loukum from Arax. I loooove that place and its Caucasian and Middle Eastern delights!

I later managed to drag myself to the gym, which is now a 30 minute walk from my apartment. I had planned on going everyday at 2 after GSAS, just taking the B line from work, but now that I work 2-4 at Romance I haven't felt like it. On the bright side, at least I get a full hour of light cardio every time I go from my apartment now.
As for the rest of the day, I'll just be relaxing. I need to go to TJs for some salad greens and other healthy items since my Friday morning Haymarket trip was just for fruit for Saturday. In the meantime I'm watching a frightening documentary on neo-Nazism in the U.S. fun!!!
