I’m thinking about going to the pre-opening party, “Out of this World,” at the CT Science Center in Hartford tomorrow night. No idea what to wear. I hope everyone is futuristic and fabulous rather than “geek chic,” which is too played out from the babillion 80s-themed parties thrown in the last few years.

Here’s a picture I took of the Snoopy balloon at this year’s Thanksgiving Day parade in New York:

These things I noticed:
☻ Best Game Ever: The folks behind January’s stop motion Grand Central Station performance turn a Little League baseball game into a major league production. Hilarious.
☻ Unfortunately, women are still having Sex and the City parties. And talking about it.
☻ DIY temporary tattoos!
☻ Project Runway: Bravo, out. Lifetime, in. Bravo VP Andy Cohen is locking himself in an empty boardroom right now and screaming, “My empire…is…CRUMBLING!”
☻ I stopped watching ANTM and now just read Fourfour’s recaps instead. It’s 100% less shrieky.
☻ I really dislike Giada “bobblehead” De Laurentiis, but I’m going to try her recipe for Amaretto Sours with Prosecco. But maybe use whiskey instead of Amaretto.

We just spotted these at the Shell Station on Capitol Avenue (a.k.a. “The Murder Mart”) yesterday morning, and they mentally jarred us into checking up on the CT Pride Festival 2006.
Yes, rumors are true–thank god–it’s being moved from Bushnell Park to the heart of Hartford’s Main Street, from City Hall to the Old State House.
Every city in the world seems to celebrate Pride in late June, but Hartford’s party is always held in the fall. This year it takes place on September 9.
Which is fine with us–September may be much less sweaty on the asphalt than late June was anyway.
