Crazy Vagabond-ness
I'm in Memphis.
Last weekend I went to Fleur de Lindy, a Lindy exchange held during the French Quarter Fest in New Orleans. It was a blast! Tromping around the Quarter all day, dancing in the middle of the street to awesome live jazz bands.
I went a day early so I could meet up with by boardgaming friend, Mischa. We chatted and caught up, played some games, and I met some of his New Orleans friends who seemed really cool.
Food quality was a roller-coaster. I had some awesome Mediterranean, the blandest, largest po-boy I've ever tasted (or failed to taste) (and it could have fed 3 people), a scrumptious jambalaya omelet, a very dry muffalatta and a very good, but ultimately very overpriced ritzy meal.
I met a bunch of awesome people from Memphis while there, and they invited me to come back with them. So I pushed my free Southwest flight back almost a week and changed from New Orleans to St. Louis. Despite not flying to Memphis, Southwest rocks. I'll be driving with the Memphis folks to some dance event in St. Louis on Friday, flying home Sat.
Woot!
