So I only worked 2 days last week in the office then I went to New Orleans for a conference. I took Matt with me since it was his birthday, he had never been there and mainly because I am a pretty nice wife. Our flight was delayed so we only got a couple of hours of sleep before we started off with an Alligator Safari trip in New Orleans. We had a blast and got to hold some alligators. Wednesday night we went out on Bourbon street.. drank hurricans and danced to live music. Matt was hurting the next day but I got him to go on some tours while I was working the booth at the conference. That night we again returned to bourboun street but more food than drinks this time. We flew back on Friday. I ended up meeting up with my friend Tracy at Midway airport. She was in town for the birthday parties. It was great having guest over for the weekend. Saturday was a day just filled of fun. We first went to my favorite brunch place 'Tre Kronor'. I am not sure Tracy and Greg was as impressed as I am of that place. I am a bit partial to the Swedish food. Then we headed to the Oriental Theather to see the show Wicked. It was so good! You have to go see it. I am a bit of an ice queen sometimes but I was even shedding tears at the end. After that we headed to dinner. My brother and his wife came to join us and then we spent the rest of the night dancing & chatting at the bar. I did so many things Saturday that I did not feel guilty at all about sitting on the couch in my PJs all day Sunday.

I just kinda woke up and I realized I had been reading this blog for like 10 minutes, listening to Polyphonic Spree... surreal.
ReplyDeleteI remember thinking "tourists"! because I used to live in New Orleans and work on an alligator tour. (sorry)
Then I got to the part about being a professional running course finder or what ever and I started laughing my head off! Great stuff
