This year's Mermaid Parade out at Coney Island wasn't nearly as much fun as last year's (when we actually got dressed up and participated in the parade), but it was still a pretty good time.

All the people dressed up and participating in the parade start on the boardwalk, walk down the beach through three gated ribbons, each representing a season, and then march the entire parade right in the water, officially bringing in the summer. tags:beach

Yeah, so those are pretty much the only good pics I have from the Mermaid Parade this year. I told you it wasn't nearly as good as last year's. Later that evening, a bunch of us headed out to Greenpoint to check out a loftparty in my old building. Dave and I represent on the Cripp tip... tags:david f

Hey Buddy, before you start on your second slice, you might want to finish eating the HUGE CRUMB stuck to your cheek that's left over from your first slice! Hahah. tags:drunk

The party was pretty much a bust - it was totally overcrowded and hot and sweaty inside, so we took off. Back on Bedford Ave, we ran into this tall funny guy who kept trying to chat up this really drunk little midgety type guy. I'm sure everyone who reads this knows how much I love midgets, so we immediately went over to see what was going on. tags:midget

Turns out that there wasn't anything going on - but that doesn't mean I don't want to take pictures! tags:grant

Can you pick out what's different here? Yep, that's right. Only one person is wearing a blue shirt. (From L to R: Lil' Buddy, Tall Stranger that was trying to be "money" like Vince Vaughn, Chris, Grant, and Grant's crazy friend Alyssa who came back to my place and tried to cheat on her boyfriend with me. Crazy, crazy, cuh-razy. tags:alyssa
