I know it's way early to be thinking about fall as we have been having some amazing summer weather in Finland and it doesn't look like it's going away, but before we know it, it'll be my birthday and the fall semester for Gay Cafe will be fully on. So keeping that in mind, I had couple of friends over today to brainstorm for Forssa Pride Party and Gay Cafe.
There's really no limits for girl power. When it comes to the things I manage, I'm kind of a control freak, but it does become tedious if it's just me trying to come up with things. So as I'm keeping the leash close to me, I do accept some help. And these ladies came equipped with great ideas. We pretty much have the fall program set for Gay Cafe and Forssa Pride Party 3 is going to rock! We have a theme and we have a program, as long as the schedule clears. I'm super excited and can't wait to announce it, and my team is super excited! What we are doing now is pretty much what I envisioned when I was dreaming about a organizing gay parties in Forssa and it can only get better from here. I'm proud of us!
So stay tuned! I will post about both as soon as I have the all clear! (Which is funny, because I'm the boss, so basically if I wanted, I could tell you our ideas already!)

Wild cats
Back to reality from my week long Pride high! I had a Monday off to vacay from vacay. On Tuesday I came down with a migraine after the afternoon coffee break and had to come home in the middle of the day. I feel like cramming up and trying to finalize all my work before vacation as well, because both of my bosses are going to be off the next 3 weeks so there's no one to make decisions. So everything that needs an approval right now, has to be finished. And on top of that, tomorrow afternoon is the annual summer resident day in the municipality building, so I have to give a little presentation on how my projects are going. Not a public speaker, remember!
My cats were not happy that I left them home for a week to fend for themselves. Ybi was here every day feeding them and cleaning the little box, but my cats are afraid of him so they didn't get any human contact during that time. When I came home on Sunday, they were super excited, but just like toddlers they couldn't control their excitement and started fighting. They were wild.
Now, before my vacation, I was able to take Dunkin Donuts outside in her harness and walk around the building, TWICE in consecutive days! That's huge for my timid little scaredy cat! Then yesterday, I took Brooklyn outside for a walk and he walked at least 800m, about twice the usual little walk we make. And When I took DD outside, she didn't wanna come inside until there were some dogs outside who started barking and she got scared. But then she wanted outside again, so she started scratching the door outside and tried to open the handle! Like I said, I'll have 2 dogs by the end of the summer! Balcony's not enough for them anymore.
Brooklyn has been extra cuddly lately and he's very jealous as well. He was yelling inside the whole time me and DD were outside, he could be heard in the hallway, and he gives me the evil eye when I brush or hold DD. And he yells constantly! Super bossy, that one.
I'm waiting for them to start bringing me their harnesses and leash, because they know which drawer to break into, and when they do, we are joining the circus!
