there were yoyo's EVERYWHERE!

[Brian Kevin]

all this week and weekend Cleveland has dedicated over two hotels to a Yo-Yo convention. We're talking the best of the best in the WORLD. I go downtown everyday I'm home in Cleveland (okay I play Pokemon go Savagely) and I am always in newly renovated Public Square, I always walk infront of The Renisance hotel and well I had to stop, look, look again and then my jaw dropped. Growing up I loved yoyo's but I never went beyond the cradle and the basic 'Walking the dog'.

 

Grindr, JackD and all the other usual apps are BOOMING! Sexy gay boys and men from all over the world all ages here to show off their skills with a yoyo! Although I couldn't get inside the convention (even after offering a blow job to a tall dark and handsome security guard [inside my head of course]) they were checking passes and I was clearly out of place so I turned bright red and exited the convention center, at least I had cloths on haha!

 

When I tell you kids half my age and half their age were just..... Completely breath taking. There's no hate in our streets, no arguing, no protesting. Just yoyo's everywhere and kids/adults/parents/grandparents practically every other person got a yoyo or a yoyo themed shirt on downtown and they're all making a HUGE line at chipotle everyday. I stop into chipotle a couple times a week and load up on proteins only, the line which didn't even exist during the "U-Know-What" is ALWAYS wrapped around out the door onto the street.

 

So instead I go to the heines grocery store and on me walk I always pass horses by East 4th, it's been so hot this week, I remembered last year, someone very special took me on a horse and carriage ride through New York City. It was magical and my first time in New York City aside from just driving through. I remembered he brought apples with him and just how much the morse enjoyed those apples. So I got apples and all the horses were giving taxi rides. So since it was so hot, I could smell down all 3 of them! I bought 12 red and 12 green and divided them into 3 separate bags. Carefully approached all the drivers (what do you properly call the man in charge of the horse?!) and as I passed them the bag they were so excited and pleasantly suprised.

 

From hearing all their voices I realized they were all of Eurpoean decent! Which I thought was really cool! So everyday since my birthday I've been going downtown, spending 16-20$ on apples for the horses and I find it to be so much fun and so rewarding. I'm sad that my days in Cleveland are coming to an end.

 

Wishing everyone to stop and smell the flowers (just don't get stung by a bee, especially to those with allergies-- maybe just buy a air freshener and spray it at home and pretend your smelling the flowers) to stop and watch the sun set. To smile at a stranger is to forever change your course in life AND theirs. No good deed goes unpunished.

 

Love and let love.

LONGEVITY!!
