Missing N'Awlins
Aug. 23rd, 2006 12:53 amI am really missing Nawlins right now. I suppose it's because of all the Katria anniversary documentaries and whatnot.
Man, do I love that city. Krista, we goin' again for Mardi Gras this year?

arm-in-arm down Burgundy
a bottle and my friends and me
hoist up a few tall cool ones
play some pool and listen to that
tenor saxophone calling me home
and I can hear the band begin
"When the Saints Go Marching In"
by the whiskers on my chin
New Orleans, I'll be there

Date: 2006-08-23 05:29 pm (UTC)I had a marvelous time; stayed in a bed and breakfast called the Melrose Mansion, took the Natchez down the Mississip, drank Hurricanes and ate crawfish like they was goin' out of style, loved the Voodoo and Wax Museums!
Yeah, it's a wonderfully evil old town, but I wouldn't want to go during Marti Gras. I LOATHE crowds. (funny that I live in NYC, eh?)
