Too nice to blog
So I won’t do any more than say HEY, how is everyone and have a terrific day. Here on the east coast, it is another gorgeous day, probably cold to those of you on the west coast or my friends in Hawaii, but after months and months of miserable rotten weather, this is fantastic. Yesterday was a top down day and I think today will be as well.
As for me, I am running around doing laundry and ‘thinking’ about packing - I am the world’s worst procrastinator and packer, so it takes me forever. No date night tonight cause I have too much to do and we need to be up and out of here early am. Joe (my husband) is really fun to go on vacation with cause he really believes in the concept of VACATION and we have a blast!! But he is a pain in the ass in the “getting ready to go part”. He is one of those people who would rather pay lots more for a flight that leaves midday. Me, I book flights early in the AM cause I can save hundreds of dollars and if I am going, I want to get there. So this morning he has asked me a zillion times why we have to be out of here at the crack of dawn - 7AM for him is the crack of dawn, for me it is mid-morning!! I always tell him if he wants to take over all our travel arrangements, he can make whatever reservations he likes. I get THE LOOK then. 
I bought myself a tiny little mini netbook yesterday, so hopefully will have easy access to internet and will blog sporadically from ‘the big easy’ next week. I cannot be without my email, etc. and the laptop we have here is big and heavy so this should be much easier to deal with. In between beignets, po’boys and hurricanes (the drink), emphasis most likely on the hurricanes, and some gambling, I shall try to keep in touch!!
Am leaving instructions for my son..............for the cat!! How bad is that. He is an adult (son, not the cat) and knows what to do or not to (like do NOT let her go out after dark) but the mother in me feels better making notes. Stupid! All I need to do is make sure there is enough of her “gourmet” cat food around - yes, she only likes ONE kind and it has to be fish only, no beef or turkey or chicken for her, and it must be SHREDDED. Not too spoiled. And her dry food is for cats with sensitive stomachs. There is a story behind that I shall share one day.
Just got the funniest cartoon from a friend--if I knew how to bring it here, I would but for now, use your imaginations. The picture shows the cutest little baby chicken staring down at a friend egg. The caption says, “SHIT Pete--is that you??” Loved it.
SO, nothing from me tomorrow, will be traveling and no time; so in advance, let me wish you all a Happy Easter, Happy Spring, Happy whatever makes you happy and hopefully I can get back to you on Monday. If I don’t, well you know why!! 
Ciao’
Cyn must be having a *really* good time. I dunno, though...it would be nearly impossible for me to resist playing with a brand new netbook… ;)
So, Cyn, are you having fun yet?
