kybearfuzzAs most people know by now, the Supreme Court voted yesterday that same-sex marriage was a constitutional right. It was an amazing day. I had trouble working as there was this constant flow of good news, wonderful tributes, and moving stories online. It's been a long time since I've felt such positivity and hope in the air. I'm happy to have seen this wonderful part of history finally unfold. I was looking forward to the Cincinnati Pride festival for a while, but the announcement made the promise that festival was going to go from fun to pure awesome.
This morning, I donned my Pride shirt this year. I put together the final touches on the design a few nights back and put my shirt together on Thursday night.

I was constantly on the move. Pride festival, beer and lunch, festival, movie theater, festival.... it was a lot of walking and a lot of sights to see.
Midway through the festival, I took a break and went to see "Ted 2," which was cute and surprisingly applicable to the gay marriage fight, getting mentioned more than once in film. It's a crude movie, but that's part of the charm.
The headliner for the festival was Steve Grand. I'd never heard of him before, but I admit he puts on a good show. I spent the last hour of the festival standing, hugging, and chatting.
I stopped by Graeter's Ice Cream on the way home, a little treat to cap off a fantastic day. I had bourbon pecan chocolate chip, which was a seasonal flavor that was so popular they made it a permanent addition. Oh, soooo goooood.
Happy Pride everyone!
