It has thrown me off a bit. I haven't taken many pictures so far, mainly because of the rain. Two days of rain hasn't made it real pleasant at times. For the sake of music we endure it. Friday I got out the fest later than planned.

Not that I don't mind, but this time of year seems to go by in such a lighting pace. Really time goes by when you are having fun.

I went on up the levee where I normally take my bike rides. The last time I went on a bike ride was a week and half ago.

I am proud to say that I did. I was a little out of it for most of the day. My body took quite a beating from being on that concrete floor in the arena for so long. My knees hurt, my feet hurt, I had blisters and was over all exhuasted. I didn't want to miss out on the fest however. I was willing to power through it.

We went out to Houma to have some food and then the swamp tour. The plan was then to have some dinner and listen to some Cajun music and then head back to the city. We forgot that it was Good Friday, so we didn't get to have the dinner and music portion. We had lunch at Boudreau & Thibodeau's.

I don't know how many people rememeber the saga of my vehicle after the storm. So here is a quick rundown. When I moved here, I didn't have a car. I got by with the public transportation, cabs, and friends. It was fine.

They kicked it off just right. It was funny because there was about an area right in front of the band that no one wanted to enter into right at first. I tried to get a few people out there, and finally Eddie showed up and took charge. That and Mark told people to move on up.

I had the BEST time. Granted our seats were better than we will probably ever have again, but that arena it was just a buzzin. It was loud and everyone was really into the game standing up and cheering.

Well actually I didn't intend to skip dinner. I wasn't hungry when we left the house to go and see Paul Sanchez at d.b.a. I was figuring I could pick something up at Mona's or 13 at some point, or eat when I got home. I had a few drinks. Can you tell where this is heading?

I should hopefully be getting a phone call today, probably just to chat about what I can do.

It excited me to the core, then scared me shitless, then excited me again. I need to decide today if I want to take the chance with it or not. Even if I take the first step with it, it really doesn't mean that I will get to do take part in the whole thing. I am thinking that I may do it. I mean if for some reason I do get it?

A bunch people were leaving and one of them stops and asks if I wrote the blog Randomness. That was a first time that some one I didn't know brought up my blog and recognized me because of it. So hello L!

There was a huge stage set up right outside the entrance. At first there were not a whole lot of people there.

It is raining. Again. Under tornado warnings/watches. Again. My head still hurts. I have to go to the dentist. If I hear my boss clear his throat one more time I am going to go gouge his eyes out.

Not only is he one of the most sweetest and loving people you will ever meet, he also plays a pretty mean trumpet. Since moving here, both he and his wife have been like a big part of my NOLA family.

None of huge importance, so its comin' atcha bullet styleFor those of you who have asked to see the pics of Taylor Hicks onstage with Papa Grows Funk, don't hold your breath to see them anytime soon.

This time he sat in for a song with Papa Grows Funk. As we were walking up John was getting some things out of his van. We said hello and made idle chit-chat. As we started walking off we asked if there was anything we could do to help. You know carry something in.

I was really wanting to stay curled up in bed and snuggle with the kitties. However I did want to see some of my friends so I made the 2 block walk. As I am approaching, I see a limo parked at the corner.

I know a lot of people here who are worn out from the constant flow of fun. I think I counted how many parades I went to. I lost count after ten.

If you recall in a previous post (to lazy to go and find it) I say that Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest are my favorite holidays, with Jazz Fest coming in just slightly ahead. Guess what was announced today? That is right. The line up for Jazz Fest. Now we knew a few of the headliners since they were announced awhile boneramafreakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04420779244738055517noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049164.post-25267185146865220892008-01-23T05:03:00.000-08:002008-01-23T05:15:53.187-08:00CrowdedI have some personal space issues. I kinda like my personal space. I don't mind giving friends hugs, the kisses on the cheeks that is fine. If I am in a crowd? Say at a concert? I need to be right up front and not look back to see the people behind me. Or I need to stay in the back. People I don't know or care for that much seem to crowd up too much.

Around Christmas I bought some Sally Hansen nail builder polish. It is a clear polish, like a base. I started using that, as well as a polish and a topcoat. Since then my nails haven't been the same. They are so weak now. It did the exact opposite of what it was suppose to do. I don't know if it was the combination of all three on or what.

I don't know if was because they changed routes or what. We were close to the start, at Royal and Frenchmen where they had barriers set up. They use barriers for a reason. We had gotten there about an hour and half before the parade, and there was like 7 of us. boneramafreakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04420779244738055517noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049164.post-80676784024970162462008-01-17T05:44:00.000-08:002008-12-10T17:39:20.080-08:00What Do You do on Fat Tuesday??My first Mardi Gras experience down here in NOLA happened in 2003. We had the best time, really didn't catch that many parades, we were out seeing music and went to the Orpheus Ball. Both Craig and Leroy told some of us (there were about 30-40 of us here in a group) to come out the St. Anne parade. That it was a lot of fun and we really needed to check it out. boneramafreakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04420779244738055517noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049164.post-57819606185477940572008-01-16T05:04:00.001-08:002008-01-16T05:19:17.556-08:00Everything is almost in placeI ate two pieces of king cake yesterday.

It all began with a certain musician named Harry Connick Jr. I had really enjoyed his music ever since college. I picked up a few of his cds and would have them on boneramafreakhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04420779244738055517noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049164.post-62840335740987103382008-01-13T09:40:00.001-08:002008-01-13T10:22:11.681-08:00Who knew?Thank you for delurking and say hi!!

I grew up in Montana. I spent something like 14 years of my life there. Up until 10 years old and then college. It was cold there. I lived in Seattle for like 8 years, it got cold there.

I don't even know where to start. I actually had New Years Eve off so I enjoyed that day fully. Reading a bit, watching some TV, a little gardening, a trip to the grocery store, a visit with some friends. It was a rather full day. I wasn't really sure if I was going to make it to midnight however, but I did.

Other than the cough, the stuffy nose and the spins I am feeling better. I think the spins are on account of I kept waking myself up coughing last night.
