Baby Princesses

The baby princesses showed the way

After rapidly ingesting two blueberry pancakes this morning, I discovered the teeth on my jeans’ zipper were not interlocking. I ran to the bathroom and whipped off my pants and tried to get the zipper to work but it was no use. The fly was straight up busted. I jumped into my car and sped off to change, and on the way to my apartment I saw marching bands and policemen. Happily, another Portuguese parade was a-brewing.

Today’s procession must have had some mythical back story, because it was quite somber and quasi-religious. Baby princesses bore sparkling crowns. A woman in an olive green dress carried a white dove on a pillow. I believe the pillow dove symbolized peace. Sharon said the bird was probably dead.

Not as good as the other Portuguese parade; that one had a rumbling volcano float and candy throwers. Definitely still good enough to brighten my Sunday, and break up my thirteen hour workday.
