John has. Heh. Yesterday was a blast, despite the fact that I had no energy, felt like ass, and was half-delirious. But I still managed to eek out a lap at Hooper. And now, I will impart to you my off-road wisdom: There is no shame in falling, nor is there shame in walking your… Continue reading Have you hugged a tree lately?
Month: October 2005
Voodoo, Redux.
My journey began yesterday morning, at a friend’s house for breakfast and mimosa’s to prep for voodoofest. It was at this point when I would all the food of that day. Some cooked potatoes, a banana, and a bicuit. While this is usually a bad move, somehow it wasn’t. So, we head out there, and… Continue reading Voodoo, Redux.

… And All The World Is Green
Im trying to come up with an summary of the past three weeks, but words fail me. I’ll try though. If you were to take a tour of the city, only paying attention to the physical state of the city, depression would come easily. The buildings and whole neighborhoods that need to be razed is… Continue reading … And All The World Is Green
I’ll steal your pop-tarts like I stole your socks.
Step up sucker, understand? Don’t you know, I’m the man! So it’s official. On Thursday, October 20th, I became The Man™. Since we have a limited staff here in our New Orleans office, it was decided that I should be added to the list of those who can co-sign checks, so that our Claims department… Continue reading I’ll steal your pop-tarts like I stole your socks.
Literature: The New Crack!
Hi, my name is Will, and I, uh, *looks down* I liked the Harry Potter books. All of them. Don’t get me wrong, I always highly respected J.K. Rowling and what she did; she got millions upon millions of children excited and eager to read. I really don’t think that I have a higher pedestal… Continue reading Literature: The New Crack!
White Powder Goodness.
( Comic mercilessly ganked from Writhe and Shine ) Every day, I see more familiar faces. Every day, more businesses re-open. Naturally, my trip today to the newly re-opened Cafe du Monde did not yield these same results. Why, you ask? How is it that a person, wearing black jeans and a black button-down longsleeve… Continue reading White Powder Goodness.
Click, Click, Boom.
Want to kill me easily? Put a mini-claymore in my mouse. The slightly less easy way? Make me fall for a girl. Ah, the wanton click of a mouse. Connections made, connections rended. Wrought? Rent? Eh, I’m not not sure what the proper word is. Either way, it’s temporary (in reality, a year and a… Continue reading Click, Click, Boom.
Rebuilding Through Commerce
Some may view this post as a collections of “plugs”, but it’s not. Just bear with me. Before I left, I had loaned my $60 Kryptonite lock to Kelly. Well, the lock did not evacuate, but instead drowned with all of her posessions. Kelly contacted me to ask what model of lock I had so… Continue reading Rebuilding Through Commerce
The Dumaine Street Treatments: Act Two
All is good. Just paid rent for this month. No evictions, at least not yet. ;) I wasn’t angry by the fact that I was getting evicted. It was the timing, the principle that got me. The building was sold about 4 or so months back (not sure exactly how long), so I was more… Continue reading The Dumaine Street Treatments: Act Two
