Look, you got a little stabbed the other day. That's bound to make anyone a mite ornery.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Oh, she'll be out drinking.

Lamothe House might be a nice place to stay if you're looking for a funky B&B (complete with pool and hot tub!).

I found this place, [link] which includes a jacuzzi tub. It seems perfect, but it was the first link on Google, which for some reason makes me nervous.

Oh, she'll be out drinking.

hey! okay, well that's true. Since I have one meeting per day, every other day. Except the last day, when I have two meetings, but I'll stay over.

PIMPERS - would a form make this easier for you? Debetesse has one from last year.

Sure, I'd like to take a look at it, anyway. Thanks!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Vortex, I'm not sure about that neighborhood. You'd probably be better sticking with something in the Quarter. And while it is only a few blocks from the border of the Quarter, most of the bigger stuff will be near the other end, rather than the Esplanade end.

I just went to make a reservation at Commander's Palace, and it's closed until further notice1 *sob*

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Oh, that is sad. I just made a reservation for the Vegas one, but it's not the same thing.

Hmm. That location might actually be okay, Vortex, based on some googling. I admit to not knowing much about Faubourg Marigny, although I still maintain that the walking might get a little tiresome.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

The LV chef and much of the staff are (or were as of April) imports from NOLA, so although you won't be able to get a window table with a view of a lovely mournful graveyard, you will be able to get a proper meal. Also, don't miss the Museum of the American Cocktail.

Hec and I stayed in the Marigny on our honeymoon and one of the doctors I work for lived there during med school/residency; we loved visiting and she loved her 3-4 years there. Funky and artsy and, IIRC, close enough to the Quarter that it didn't sustain devastating flood damage. If you go there, keep an eye out for the ramshackle anarchist pirate coffeehouse.
