Who Dat.....and Hello

Sorry! I know, absent blogger. I swear, work is killing me! It is a good thing, but I can honestly say I earn every single dollar I get paid. I work hard. I am dead at the end of the day. The blog just has to wait for the weekend, it seems (as do bills and returning emails).

I would just like to say WHO DAT. Yes, I am in full Nola mode right now- I have already had my drive through daiquiri- followed by jambalaya at the in-laws (with chicken and turkey, yes, they respect the no pork and beef thing)- and we just realized we are on the 3rd bottle of wine.

Tomorrow I get to go run in Audubon Park in uptown New Orleans. I am now running 3 miles, but don't hold me to it. It is still really hard for me to run that far/ or not far depending on how you look at it. When I lived in New Orleans, Audubon Park used to be about 4 blocks from my house...my old stomping ground. Tomorrow will be gorgeous and fun.

I will follow that up with some more New Orleans craziness.

and then the Saints.

I was at the very first Saints playoff win in 2000 when the Saints beat the Rams. I cannot express to you the excitement and craziness- one of the best experiences of my life being in the Super Dome for a Saint's playoff win. I cannot believe it is already 2010....10 years later???? Where does the time go?

Let's do it again! Look for me behind the goal post after extra points or field goals- I will dress crazy of course- maybe some pig tails and a boa, so look for me on TV!

WHO DAT!!!!!!!!!!!
