Had six of these to start

Remember that one time I boozed it up for three days in New Orleans and decided it’d be a good idea to work the Monday afterward? I hate my life.

Jackson Square

This weekend was, in a word, incredible.

Beignets at Café du Monde … get in my belly

I traveled to Crescent City (that’s NOLA, in case you didn’t know either) with some close friends from high school for a pre-birthday party. We ate, we drank, we danced, we stumbled … it was the perfect kickoff to what should be my best year yet.

Cucumber Collins: Cheers to that!

From the beignets to the bars to the Bourbon Street boobs and beads, I wouldn’t change a thing. Well, except for the exhaustion I’m still feeling.

Visiting the 9th Ward, where Katrina hit hardest

At least it’s my birthday Wednesday and we get to celebrate America too — I guess.
