We've been snowed-in here in Riley Court for a little while now (LeeAnne for two days, Melisa for one) and we could NOT be more ready for New Orleans' 70 degree weather!!!
So far we've uncovered an age-old predicament: the more time we spend with our luggage, the more we try to put in our luggage. Who lets women pack for themselves, anyway?! If we had it our way, we'd need two extra suitcases just for shoes! YOU JUST NEVER KNOW! As it is, we have the rainbow covered with Old Navy flip flops... Our toes haven't seen the light of day for far too long and they can't stand it any more!
We've also tackled another age-old predicament: What the heck do you do when there are no other people within a hundred yards? Okay, we might be exaggerating a bit, but there are certainly no people within reasonable walking distance. So what do we do? Well, unfortunately for us, there are no marathons of America's Next Top Model on today, so we had to Wii it up. Cooking Mama, here we come! We might not be able to really cook those entrees, but in the video gaming world, we make some pretty sweet cream puffs!
Another fortunate event of the day: Melisa's parents supplied us with rations from Arby's. Somehow we've lasted the night, but if we don't leave for NOLA in the morning, we may have to resort to eating the furniture. :)
We are SO EXCITED to be heading out in the morning! (Excited NOW that is... Tomorrow morning when the alarms go off at 5:30 or sooner? Well, that's a whole other story.) It's Melisa's first trip down to the Gulf Coast and she's excited to get a tour from the vet-- LeeAnne. All I (LeeAnne) really want is some cafe au lait and some beignets. Mmmm... I could sit and sip coffee all day! (Luckily, Melisa could do that, too, so hopefully we get some time to!)
Until next time.... Like sand through the hourglass, these are the days of our lives. ;)
Stay posted for more cheesiness from Melisa and LeeAnne. Outtie!
