Actually, we've been back since late Friday, but we had a jam-packed weekend and colds. I'm still coughing up a storm.
Thanks for all of the shout-outs about our puppy. It's always nice to hear people are thinking of you when you're down. We're still in the stage of thinking about May as if she's still around and it sucks when she's not. We miss her lots.
New Orleans was vair fun. We had a great time and got to be with Dan, who we never see, cuz he's so busy becoming a lawyer and my lil' sis', Kelly. We did the Bourbon street thing and Kelly and I discovered that we like sidecars (1p brandy, 1p triple sec or cointreau, 1p lemon juice, rim cup with sugar, if you please), we spent way too much $$ at the French Market, and we paddled around the bayou in a canoe! Good times.
Pictures will be posted … oh hell… I dunno when. Soon, I hope.While we were in NO, we went out to dinner and Dan, the future lawyer was giving Kelly, the would-be lawyer hell about getting her law-school aps in a bit near the end of the deadline, stating that if she was on the border, that could tip her the wrong way. My comment was, “Ah … she'll get in and she'll probably get a scholarship too.”
So when we were going thru security I got a phone call. She got in, to her first choice, CU, and she got a scholarship. She is, without a shadow of a doubt, vair brilliant.
Now she just has to decide if she wants to go…
Actually, now she just has to finish her thesis and actually graduate and thus be *able* to go to law school…
Glad you had fun!
