kybearfuzzEarlier last week, mikiedoggie messaged me about visiting this weekend. I picked up Mike on Saturday morning, ate lunch, and went with the local moviebears group to see "Deadpool 2." I really loved the movie, very funny with a bit more plot than the first film. We stayed through all the credits to see the extra scenes and listen to the hilarious soundtrack.
Sunday, we met up with_decibel_ and kybigstew for a great brunch downtown, then a nap, then back to downtown Cincinnati for the annual "Taste of Cincinnati" festival. We chowed down on some of the local vendors' offerings, including deep fried nutella fritters!
After getting some food and drink, we went to see the Sunday concert with Loverboy, Rick Springfield, and the B-52's performing. I have to admit that I was never the biggest fan of Loverboy, but they sounded AMAZING! The lead singer really can belt it out and I realized that I knew more of their hits than I remembered. Rick Springfield is clearly bathing in the blood of virgins, because he looks incredibly young and fit for his 68 years. I was definitely re-living my teenage years when he was performing because I have so many of his hits on my Iphone. When the B-52's hit the stage, it was a huge light and video show and they were so much fun. Not that I dislike them in any way, but after four hours standing and dancing on concrete, my feet were KILLING me and I was ready to go. Mikie had seen them in concert multiple times, so he didn't mind bailing, so we left for my house, stopping by TGIFriday's for a late dinner and desert.
It was a pretty great weekend. I dropped Mikie off at the airport this morning and decided to nap most of the day. I could easily use another day off to recover, because work is going to be a mess tomorrow, but hopefully it will be a fast week.

Oooh... and Rick was a hottie in the day. He still looks amazing, but not like the towel-wearing rock star from "Hard to Hold."
