It's Pride Weekend in Houston!

Happy Pride from Houston, Texas!!!

It's Pride Week in Houston and the big stuff starts happening tonight!  If you're looking for Miss G, here's where she'll be:

Starting at 6pm tonight she'll be with the Krewe of Olympus,  selling beads on Pacific Street outside of JR's.  Nothing says "PRIDE" like cheap plastic jewelry,  so come by to buy some rainbow beads and support the Krewe!

Tomorrow, during the pride festival,  she'll be hanging out at the Krewe booth,  selling more beads and generally enjoying the gay pride spirit!  The festival is always lots of fun so come on by and show your stuff!

She's walking the parade with the Macy's entry.  This is only the 2nd year for Macy's to be in the Houston parade,  but each year the entry gets bigger.  No one knows how to parade like Macy's (didn't they invent parades?), so who knows what the future will bring as they become more and more involved with Pride parades around the country!  This years Macy's celebrates it's 150th anniversary,  so we're hoping to have 150 walkers in the parade.  Everyone's welcome,  so meet us on Kipling before the parade if you want to walk with us!

After the parade the traditional gathering spot for the Krewe is EJ's. We'll be there for drinks until the wee hours, I'm sure.

Sunday, Miss G is planning to stay in bed and rest after the long week.  If any handsome men want to join in that festivity,  they will need to apply in person somewhere along the way!  A girl can dream,  can't she?!

Whatever you do this weekend,  have fun, stay safe, and be proud!  You are FABULOUS!
