So since I'm a little obsessed with lists and what not I'm going to let you people know about my crazy ass week away from the city...
Thursday, March 8th
*Depart from La Guardia Airport at 9am
*Arrive in New Orleans at noon, Scott-taye's picking me up
*Enjoy a nice leisurely ride with my best friend I haven't talked to in forever
*Arrive at SLU, meet up with Aaron and freak out over... everything about him
*Leave as soon as possible for Baton Rouge, where we will stop and have a quick lunch of poboys and other LA delicacies
*Get back on the road, en route to Houston, TX
*Arrive at mom's house around 9pm or so
*Enjoy some tasty tamales and visiting with mom until we all pass out
Friday, March 9th
*Sleep in for as long as possible
*Get some lunch in Houston, then head to Austin, TX
*Arrive at the Thistle Cafe in Austin around 4pm for Kristin's rehearsal dinner
*After the dinner, Aaron must head off to check into the hotel and visit his Austin friend, while I attend a bachelorette party for Ms. Reible
*After the party, meet up with Aaron and his friend Lauren for some drinks in downtown
Saturday, March 10th
*Meet with the accompanist at the church at 10am to go through the music I'm singing
*Ceremony begins at 11am
*By noon, Kristin will be Mrs. Olivier Pelletier
*After the wedding, go get some lunch with mom and Aaron and my Aunt Wendi
*At 4pm, attend the reception for guaranteed fun times
*If we're up to it, meet up with Lauren again for some bevies before retiring for the evening
Sunday, March 11th
*Get up early and head straight back to Ponchatoula, no stops in Houston, as mom and Aunt Wendi have their own vehicle
*Hopefully get back in town not too late, so I can visit with Aaron's fam and maybe we can stop at the Chimes on the way in town... I need some Abita pitchers and some blackened gator and sauteed crab claws
*Sleep
Monday, March 12th
*Go to school with Aaron, visiting with everyone at school while he's in classes
*Probably sit in on Wind Symphony and Jazz Band
*Have lunch with Ms. Herring and whoever else is available around 2pm
*Play around town, go to Funky Diva- I need a shirt for me and my sister that says "Louisiana is for lushes" and she'd better still have it
*Sit in on part of an opera rehearsal
*Go to dinner alone with Aaron at Kirin for a lovely date
Tuesday, March 13th
*Go to school again with Aaron
*After Aaron's last class, go to New Orleans for a night on the town with Lauren and Chip, including dinner at Jacques-imo's and who knows what else
Wednesday, March 14th
*Leave for New York City around noon... hoping someone can bring me...
So yeah, my vacation will start off crazy but end a bit more low key. And of course I like to be busy, as long as I'm with Aaron for most of it.
I made $400 yesterday. It was a hard long day, but somehow it was worth it, with that money in my pocket.
Ok time to pack, shower, and get to work.
