I’m tagged for another new meme. TSDivaDani from The Truth Seekers Podcast tagged me, and the meme is you have to go to your 6th page of flickr photos, and blog about the 6th picture. Here’s Dani’s post.

*mumbling* Flickr, my photostream, page 6, 6th picture, oh!

I love a parade, but my kids never really acquired my love and so once they were old enough to say no, I don’t go anymore. Except for the Dragon*Con parade. If you’ve never been to D*C and/or don’t know about the parade, here’s a synopsis. Saturday morning all the different interest groups gather in their quaint (and some not-so-quaint) costumes and parade through the streets of downtown Atlanta. Huge parade. To get the idea you can wander through this photo set if you haven’t already.

Friday night was a great party so none of my friends got up with me. I got out there early and sat by myself with my McDonald’s breakfast and waited. The street filled up pretty fast and I was surrounded by normals with kids, some bratty some not. Midway through the parade here comes Donald Duck and that little girl was screaming with delight. Until he headed directly towards her those screams changed from delighted to desperate in seconds. She went more ape-shit the closer he got. You could tell this wasn’t a regular gig for the guy inside. Most of those guys know to back off if the kid ain’t happy, but he kept trying to make up to her. She wasn’t buying it and her Dad finally picked her up and took off through the crowd. Donald shrugged and went off to terrorize some other small child. Fun!

Whew, that wasn’t so hard.
