Sunday, June 11, 2006 I love a parade
Yesterday at DC Pride, The Charm City Roller Girls and the DC Rollergirls (different leagues, different thoughts on spacing, I suppose) skated together as the Baltimore DC Derby Sisterhood. It was a great time, but there is nothing so humbling as being placed directly behind a flatbed truck full of line-dancing shirtless cowboys moving their Stetsons in suggestive ways. My, what a prominent Stetson.
We could've been setting ourselves on fire and throwing real gold coins into the audience, and we would have gotten polite applause. No Stetsons, you see.
One time, a bunch of hus were chasing each other in a circle aroudn the girls holding banners, and a bike cop joined in and circled with us. He put his little bike siren on and everything, and when he was done, he giggled about being dizzy. One pauses here to reflect on various receptions one has gotten from police officers in the District over the years. One pauses, and one blinks. One says, "Damn," and "Mmmmm MMMM." posted by Frenz | 6/11/2006 12:39:00 PM
