New Orleans or Bust

and_chocolateIt was almost the latter....
The rental car company assured me that they opened at five a.m. and could get me to my six a.m. flight no problem. They lied. They didn't even open up until 5:15 this morning, and then by 5:30 it was too late for United to get my checked luggage on my flight, so I had to rebook to the seven a.m. flight, which got me into New Orleans 2-1/2 hours later than my original plan.
On the plus side, I'm in New Orleans!
I'm sitting in the hotel room, smoking a cigarette and trying to figure out what to do for dinner and where to catch part of the Bacchus parade. The end of the parade route is about a block from me, but not visible from my window, so I'll have to go downstairs. I've also got a flask of rum, courtesy of my con roommates, so I'm pretty much set with drink and lung cancer and everything!
Oh, and on the connection from Denver to New Orleans? I finished Stop, Rewind, (re)Play! Woo hoo! Now to send it to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Date: 2004-02-22 10:17 pm (UTC)I'm already all with the drinking and the smoking and the swearing and the showing off my body. All I really need to do now is to either be turned by Lestat or...well, I'm not going to jinx the other by talking about it. *eg*
