Exciting happenings! Best of luck on this adventure.

It's a pretty good walk for such an old dog. Glad she's still up for it. My new meds aren't fully on board yet--I'd have a hard time doing it at this point.

I got that one twice.

Mike took the dog out for an after dinner walk earlier. I dozed off for a few minutes. Woke up and was kind of thinking they'd been gone a while. "We walked to the Seahorse and had a drink."
Living his best life, that guy. 😂

Since I lived there so long, I can say Baton Rouge. 😂

Right? In most places "entertainment district" tends to mean the area that allows open containers.

Distraction isn't really the right word. I do agree that they're all just terrible in every way. But I do think there is some strategy to doing so many different terrible things all at once. They do it to overwhelm and make it harder to respond.

I have a sign by the front door that says that.

Congratulations. Have a great weekend!

Well, thanks for sharing. Misery loves company ir whatever.

Hey, look, more graffiti showed up.

Congratulations!

Couldn't stand to listen to him. Never knew him personally.

It's gross and yeah, not very surprising.

I met someone in Marigny tonight who said he called someone the N word before he started with the homophobia.
Not anyone I know, so grain of salt but the source apparently works at a restaurant in the neighborhood.

They do have a great breakfast and chatting with Ms. Annie was fun.

This is the second post I've seen that mentioned Amy Poehler.
Can someone sign her to do the biopic now?

I stayed at Creole Gardens for Mardi Gras in 2023. Nice little spot.

Macaroni Grill was pretty good. It's not there anymore.
I don't think BR is any worse than most similar-sized cities as far as chains. It's a big difference when you're used to New Orleans but what city isn't?

My husband uses a naked phone all the time. It's wild.
He also currently has a cracked screen. Just saying.

We went to Moi, the newish Vietnamese place on St. Claude. Quite tasty.

I wonder how much use it gets from the new Amtrak line. It seems like a good way for train people to get to the Quarter.
I think having it go farther into Marigny/Bywater would definitely make it more useful.

Totally makes sense.

We just came from the 5:15 show. Highly recommend this film.
The 7:30 show sold out.

😂

Note to self: plan a diversion tomorrow night.

I just saw this moments ago, but yes. 😂

Sadly, you are correct.
