im currently having a movie marathon. i rented all these dvds and havent got the time to watch all of them. blockbusteronline is definitely awesome. just watched coach carter, watching finding neverland and firewall is next. i've always loved harrison ford. who doesnt?! he's the one and only indiana jones! he inspired me to become an adventurous soul and not be afraid of things, well most things at least. im not disappointed so far and im hoping to watch more perfect strangers episodes later.

thursday (june 8) was my good friend lorraine's bday. happy bday lulu! we had a little get together in her new apartment with random food and close friends. it was a lot of fun and i laughed a lot. nothing better than a good hearty laugh session with friends. then that friday we ate at a brazilian eat all you can bbq joint. Malibu Grill was awesome. we were a big group so it wasnt really that fun but people who matter sat close to me so no worries. the meat carriers had tons of bbq'd meat for us. i had lamb, ribs, steak, chicken but not the turkey (which apparently was the yummiest of them all). it was cheap considering it was a "steakhouse" and that it was eat all you can and that it was dinner time and that it was a friday night. (too many thats)

yesterday i got caught up in the middle of Gay Pride Day in D.C. i cant believe how many people came to see the parade. it was awesome actually. it was like mardi gras only smaller. i had an epiphany and realized how lucky i am with my d.c. friends. choy and bry offered to take me home since my going home early was delayed by the gay pride parade that went around d.c. i have to admit, i had moments of swelling joy while i was watching the parade. there was a part of the parade where gay parents proudly walked 17th street carrying their kids and i felt all warm inside. i was almost teary-eyed. something about the sight touched me. the parents were just so proud and happy and the kids looked so loved.

people of all sexes lined up P street, Mass, 17th and Connecticut to cheer on the paraders and clap their hands in pride. parents who are proud of their gay kids got the most cheers and claps from the people. i felt kind of happy too and wowed because having a parent support and back you up no matter what is something important.. for them, for me, for everybody.

i like most stuff written on the cards they waved around. "God made the rainbow", "I love my daddies/mommies", "My son deserves a wedding gown", "I'm a proud parent", "God made eve for madame", "God made adam for steve". truly, they've shown how they stick together and i wish that all the people in the world are like that.

i miss you. i was surrounded by couples the whole weekend and not that im not happy for them, i am really but it was just there to remind me how single i am. but no worries. im doing just fine. im getting along very well without you by my side. i just want to tell the blogworld that i miss you. at least i get to vent out.

happy week everybody. payweek. for me at least yipee.
