I may be away from my Empire State Building; but that doesn't mean I'm not out, sipping and snapping away. I'm in Chicago to help celebrate my best friend Craig Seymour's birthday. (He's written a great memoir, by the way, called All I Could Bare that I just happen to be in. But that's not why I think it's great. Also check out Craig's fantastical photography, which was featured in OUT magazine).
Last Friday, the first night I was here, Craig took me to Spin, which always reminds me of Tracks, the club I went to in DC almost every week when I was an undergrad at the University of Maryland. The crowd at Spin was huddled in the back room to watch the Bear Shower Contest. Clearly from these pictures, you didn't have to be a bear to compete. But a bear did win the grand prize.
These three enthusiastically acting out Britney's single are Russian, I learned from the evening's host Debbie Fox, who was featuring an Amy Winehouse beehive. Two of the Russians are a couple. One is single. If I hadn't pre-gamed so well and enjoyed Spin's cocktails so much, I might be able to tell you what their names are and which one is the single one. At least I remembered to take pictures.
