Following a weekend of special events Kevin and I went to the Rainbow Festival (a.k.a. the "other" gay pride).
We got there at 3:30 (even though it started at 10 AM), I had to meet with my learning team from school to work on a project. Diego (this very cute guy from Peru) called me to ask me where I was. It was our first time seeing each other in person, so it took us a while to actually see each other in the crowd. The festival was ok. I saw a lot of people I know, so many that Diego called it, the "David" festival, Kevin agreed.
Mike ("2 jobs and school" Mike) was going to dance and I called him, he said he had just got there and wasn't even dressed. I waited for he and his friends to perform and they were the best show in the afternoon (Ok. I might be biased, but the crowed agreed with me). Theirs was almost the last show, so Diego, Kevin and I went to grab a bite to eat and then we went to Diego's sister's apartment.
We played pool, I beat Diego on the first game, Diego beat Kevin on the second (although a controversial winning, since he got the 8-ball in the wrong pocket) so Kevin lost the 1-cent bet. This time we were betting a quarter when Diego decided that the bet would be to pick a penny from the bottom of the swimming pool. Then somebody added skinny-dipping but it went back to underwear. I won (I should have said skinny-dipping), so I took a picture of him reaching the bottom of the pool. Out of solidarity I got in my underwear and swam with him, then went to the hot-tub since the swimming pool was very cold while we talked with Diego's sister and her wife.
We spent the night talking about coming out, losing virginities, same-sex-marriages and the people I've dated... ok... they are not that many as they said.
