Hangovers
Sometimes (not often) the hangover is worth it. I had a great time with a few friends in New Orleans on Monday. New Orleans is one of my favorite cities, but those hurricanes will kick your ass. I felt it yesterday morning. It didn’t help that I had to drive back to Alabama when I got up that morning. So I felt a bit like the guy in the picture above. Thank God for Starbucks Vanilla Lattes, LOL. Oh well, sometimes the hangover is worth it. There is nothing quite like sitting on a patio in New Orleans having drinks with friends.
About Joe
I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's.
My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces.

Sounds like you paid a visit to Pat OBrien's. One of my favorite places…love to sit on the patio, sipping Hurricanes by the fire-fountain. Awesome! Glad you had a good time.

LOL, silvereagle.Jay, I think I would keep my hangover. I hate having pink eye.Adam, it wouldn't be a visit to New Orleans without a trip to Pat O'Brien's patio for some hurricanes.
