Last weekend I went home again to celebrate Allyson, my best friend’s birthday.  After shopping in Canada at Windsor Crossing (expensive for no reason) and Devonshire Mall (fantabulous!), I returned with her gift and hurried right down to MGM Casino for Ultimate Ballrooming.  All the girls (and a few guys) sang happy birthday and danced the night away with lots o’ line hustles aka line dances.  We sang happy bday and popped some champagne.  It was a lot of fun.  The next day we had a leisurely stroll downtown and a nice lunch at Starter’s Downtown (never get the peach lemonade, eww).

Then, I was on the road to Cinci.  My line sister Kristen and I  hung out for a little while before going to a Cincinnati Reds baseball game (clearly I enjoy baseball).  It was a lot of fun and a really good game that went to the 10th inning!  Afterwards, we watched the beautiful fireworks.  Also, that night at 1am, we took Cooli to the 24-hour emergency Vet   They said he had a cold and gave him a shot and some medicine to take every 8 hours <difficult when you are running around a city on vacation>.

Saturday, we ran a couple errands around the city and ate a very cute brunch place named First Watch.  We went home and rested = nap after playing with Cooli.  We had plans to attend a day party, but got dressed in enough time to meet Kristen’s friend Allison before heading into the Macy’s Music Festival. We barely walked in on K’Jon (Detroit), we got food and drinks during EnVogue (old and sweaty), and sat enjoying Raheem DeVaughn (my boo), Erykah Badu (weird but love her) and finally Frankie Beverly and Maze (jamming).  After leaving around 1am, we strolled through an after party where I saw a couple of people that I randomly knew.  It was super cramped and uncomfy.  We headed home to sleep the night/morning away.

Sunday, we again went to brunch at Indigo Cafe with Cooli O. where I got to make my own fabulous pasta and Cooli got to enjoy the shade on the patio.  I met up with my long-time friend Darnell for some mango sorbet at Graeter’s.  After just walking around and telling stories, I lost my phone out there!!!  Thankfully, the gas station attendant helped me out before I got too far away.

The weekend was super fun times and helped to keep me distracted from all the foolywang that was happening in other aspects of my life.
