Now thissaturday looks like a several-event day with another conflict too. Hmmm. I think I need to mark in an "escape" weekend sometime soon.
Still, the sun is finally out, and so much better to have too much to do than too little (though I wouldn't mind a lazy day or two with no plans). I passed by Union Square today and saw the stage set up already for the Dance Festival thing that
zestyping is spinning fire at. He'll be on at 7:30. There were women (and shockingly not men!) dressed up in tiny glittering, bead-fringed bikini things and HUGE feather headdresses prancing around. I love this city. A squad of drummers started up a beat and they all danced ontstage and got the crowd dancing, whereupon they formed a giant conga-line, with dancers, drummers and crowd parading down to Market Street.
Did I mention I love my city? It's really all about the feathers, sequins, and total unabashed playfulness.
