Big Easy

I'm sitting in my haunted hotel room... I've yet to see any ghosts. I'm a bit disappointed in that. On the other hand, I'm finding it very difficult to not gush like a school girl about this place. I ordered room service... I swear to you, it was worth the 43 hour train ride just for their steak. I had filet mignon, which is one of my absolute favourite meals, I've had it all over the damned place... I've had awesome steak at a hotel in Toronto, but it's just chuck roast compared to the steak here, I shit you not. Even the damned burgers here are awesome... no wonder this is the fattest city in the states. I honestly think I could have just licked the filet mignon apart. I sound like a fucking advertisement... Some dude in a top hat greeted us at the door... everyone is freakishly nice... everywhere... I've heard that Canadians are supposed to be uber-friendly. Yeah... we're jackasses in comparison, although I'm basing this primarily on Toronto, so my view is probably exaggerated.

We went to the Audubon Zoo today, we took a cab... He didn't try to run over any pedestrians, he didn't cut anyone off, he didn't even swear. He actually LET people in... What happy horse shit is that? And why are so damned many of the cabs gigantic fucking trucks?

Anyhoo... back to the zoo. I went a lil photo happy, I present these to you here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/vertygo...7615784726004/ Oh, and some videos, (FYI I'm the one talking to the weird bird in the giraffe video). I am now sunburnt on the face due to the fact that I'm an idiot & forgot to put on sunscreen.

Have I told anyone that whenever I see an AT&T commercial, I can't help but see it as "Ass Tits & Twat." I also heard an ad, which included the word "situation" but I swear I heard "tituation" which I think should be entered into the dictionary to describe occasions when your boobs escape. Screw "wardrobe malfunction"

Now, I'm going to go get my PB&J & milk, because I can.

Oh, and for the record, I think I may gain 60lbs in my 5 days here... I had Bananas Foster... hot damn... I had a beef po'boy... hot damn again

    Theres a whole lotta' fun to be had in N.O. ! You should check out Tony Moran's in the old Absinthe house on Bourbon st. ... their food and booze are great ! Oh and the Aquarium of the Americas is really cool too, it's on the riverfront... I totally almost forgot to mention the tranny strip club, Idk if it's still there since Katrina but, it was on Bourbon st. and there is a kickass drag queen named "Delicious" (very Ru Paul-esque) and she is a hoot !

    I'm getting kinda' homesick now.... goddammit DG, couldn't you have swung by Colorado and picked me up along the way ? LOL

    I want a full report of all of your N.O. debauchery when you get back, lol.

    i'm sure you realise that now that you've said that about AT&T, every time i see one of those ads or pay my $150 monthly bill to them that i'll be thinking of that.

    if i went to a haunted hotel and didn't see any ghosts i would probably want a refund, but if the room service is good i guess that sort of makes up for it. did you remember to bring your holy water and salt for protection anyway? maybe that's why the ghosts are ignoring you.

    Oh, DG, have fun! I love NO! I wish I was there right now! Last time we were there we were advised by a bartender to try a drink called the "Pimm's Cup" - very light & refreshing. Please do tell about the food you have, when you get a chance! I rememeber having an excellent meal of pecan crusted shrimp at The Court of Two Sisters - I think that was what it was called.

    The aquarium IS pretty cool.
