New Orleans 2010: Take Me Back to New Orleans ALL NIGHT LONG!* (Jazz Fest and the Boobquake)
2010
It had been raining for several hours, torrential downpours that soaked you if you stood close enough to the tent opening where we had parked ourselves for the majority of the early afternoon while the thunder boomed around us. Yet there we were, among the crowd full of umbrellas and ponchos outside the Gentilly Stage, [...]
It takes a lot for me to like a city. It has to have a certain blend of character, beauty both naturally and architecturally, culture, and people. There has to be something unique about it, something that stands out. It has to elicit that feeling from me. You know the one. That feeling of ohmygod [...]
Over the past week I have been called Ho, Hieney, Booby, and Hammy. I also got really used to hearing the word no. You see, I was up in Wyoming for the week staying with my bestest, her husband and her rambunctious two year old. Last time I saw them she was just eighteen months [...]
Today I am participating in Where in the World Wednesdays, Classy in Philadelphia‘s awesome weekly series. I’ve been a little slow to participate, but you can see the two posts I did a few months back.

I actually do this a lot, this whole reminiscing on my trip. I learned so much while traveling and it had such a huge impact [...]
Do you remember how I went to Europe a few months ago? I bet you do. How could you forget? I haven’t told any stories recently but feel like I need to start telling them again, lest you feel all left out. One of the funniest moments of the entire trip was when I was [...]
It’s Wednesday and I am taking part in Classy in Philadelphia’s Where in the World Wednesday series! The idea of WITWW is to post a picture of you in someplace in the world…it doesn’t have to be somewhere foreign or tropical. Just a picture of you somewhere that you consider traveling. Three and a half [...]
Chicago. I don’t even know where to begin. Chicago was…crazy, fun, exhausting, laughter inducing, glee-infested, good food stuffing, plain old AMAZING. This recap will probably not do it justice since it fell in January and January is the month where I forget how to write and publish shit that a monkey could write. With their [...]
