Stuff like this never happens to me... :)~

Saturday, me, Kat, Jess, and Tina went up to North Hampton Mass. ( or as i like to call it ...Lesbian Land!!! )for thier PRIDE.....Kat is a mentor for this organization called True Colors, and they were marching in the parade.... We were supposed to pick up her mentee to come with us......but she blew us off......Which was just as well...cause the timing of everything would've been thrown off........and the awesome thing that happend to me probably wouldn't have....It's all in the timing baby!

We made it up there with no problems....found the parking garage.....then up Main st. to find where the marchers were meeting.....I couln't believe how quickly we got there....It literaly took us like 10 min. Now that's a short parade route!!!

So at the end of the parade we wound up in a parking lot filled with vendors and info booths....So we shopped around a bit, got some fried dough, filled out some cards to win things, and then sat and watched the entertainment....which wasn't half bad. I especially like this singer Levi Kries . He used to be a minister. I really liked the message in some of his songs....I could totally identify growing up with a very " Born Again Christian" backround...... and then there was the MC who called himself The Athens Boys Choir. He was great! He would just spew this really cool spoken word stuff off the top of his head in between the acts... All kinds of topics...Political, environmental, love, hate.... .....Plus he was the one who picked my name out of the box!

At the end of all the entertainment he announced that he was going to draw the winner for the Rosie O' Donnell cruise. He started off by saying that if the winner doesn't come up here screaming like a maniac he was going to take the cruise for himself...

He shows us the box and says he feels sorry for the people on the bottom, and gave the cards a good mix. He pulls a card out and says, " I'm sure I'm going to butcher this name"....So I'm thinking everyone butchers my last name!.....Then he says....she's from ....blah blah CT....Kat and I looked at each other......
Then he attempts to say my name....Tina C-blah blah....WooooHoooo.....Close enough Buddy!!!....That's me!!!.....So of course I went running up there like an idiot..... LOL
So I won a 7 day cruise ....staying in a State room w/a private balcony..... SWEEEET!!! :)~
