New Orleans is full of tourist attractions


While I know that this may be one of the more famous Wal-Mart locations in the world due to the looting after Hurricane Katrina (such as this photo or this photo--scroll to photo 5), I still don't think it deserves a tour bus stop.

No News

Wish I had something interesting to report, but there really is nothing new happening. I just keep doing my thing (which is sheetrocking at the current moment) as time flies by. I should let you know while I may have complained all summer about the miserably hot weather, we now have the most absolutely beautiful weather in the world. Every day is bright sun and low 80's. We have had like one day that was rainy in like a month. Its honestly amazing and supposed to last through November. Enjoy the cold Northerners.

Ima Vote

Just wanted to take a second to share something quick with ya'll (yeah I say and write ya'll now). But last night I went to a website to see if my voter registration for Louisiana ever went through. Well my name didn't come up on the website and with the deadline on Monday I was worried. Then today I got to work and after watching the debate last night everyone else was wondering if their voter cards went through. So we got on the horn and called the state. The woman wouldn't tell anyone their status unless they were the person they were inquiring about so we made the woman talk to like 7 of us to confirm that we all are registered in Louisiana where our votes count more. We all were. Now we have to try to figure out how to get everyone in the Lower Ninth Ward to the polls (I am not sure if there even are any in the L9) on Nov. 4.

I'm In Hot Water

For the first time in months I took a hot shower at my house since we just now have our water heater hooked up. Amazing.
