Today marks the one month anniversary of my living it up in the 70118. Ridiculous.

It's been pretty chilly here this past week, at least for what I'm used to. Hearing people back home talk about things like "record-setting blizzards" just seems so foreign to me.

Brent and I shared our music libraries basically meaning that we now have more and better music than anyone else ever, pretty much. I also have more music than can fit on any iPod.



Friday night, Brent, Ben, The Diversity Game, a vaporizer and I chilled in Butler.

Brent is totally Sufjan.

Totally.

We had endless good conversation that night, over three and a half hours of which is recorded in [info]codewords.

Last night was the first parade of Mardi Gras - Krewe de Vieux. You have never seen anything like this. We sat on top of some person's car the whole time, drunkenly fighting over beads being thrown into the air.

You probably won't understand a lot of these if you're not from New Orleans, but each and every one was A+.

We noticed that the mango expired last May, so we just took shots out of the vodka bottle.

We somehow acquired odd books.

Here are mine.

This is me and friends being miserably drunk on the way back.

Don't really remember much after that. We passed out in Brent's tent and woke up at 4:40 AM and decided it would be an awesome idea to go to the Big Easy cafe at about 6 AM. Here we are.
I came back to Wall, noticed that I can see the skyline from the windows of my lounge for the first time, watched a lovely sunrise and passed out.

I have yet to read Siddartha, which sits beside my bed right this moment.
I should, right now.
Currently, I'm in a transitional gap, and wishing I was living your life, at Tulane, at Mardi Gras.
But thanks for asking.
I don't even think you know me, I'm just one of those strangers on your friends list from IF.
