Gad, I'm missing eating and drinking in New Orleans.
Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Nora, so jealous. Love The Gumbo Shop and some of the others. For next time add Elizabeth's in Bywater to your list. I really hope I can go back to NOLA in March, it's become a highlight of my year.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
How can you have a roast beef po-boy without gravy?
I think they're best with just mayo and gravy, so they blend and form a glorious sauce that you can mop up with french fries.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Shir, nice work on getting the pics up! The Girl is fine with you editing her back into them. I'd like to show off my beautiful fiancee, so I'm good with that too! Hope you're feeling better, btw.
Barb and smonster, thank you so much for the compliments :) I am having a slightly horrific bipolar low day and spent all day avoiding mirrors, so your kind comments were so appreciated.
Am at The Girl's family's home for not-New Year (Jewish new yr has been and gone). We are playing Wii. I want to go into hiding and/or sleep, but at least future in-laws are being nice to me.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Erin, you definitely deserve a relaxing NYE.
Nora, welcome home. It sounds like you had a wonderful time.

I think this is what the kids call a migraine. Ibuprofen not working, feeling nauseated, and just had to ask KBD to turn down the music, and it's one of my CDs. I think a shower and liedown are in order.

Shower achieved, shot of Beam taken, heating pad procured, liedown to commence. See y'all on the flipside.

smonster, if you can tolerate Tylenol, it might help to take some, along with some form of caffeine. Excedrin, which helps for at least some people's migraines (mine, for instance) is asperin, Tylenol, and caffeine. I don't think you should take asperin with the Ibu, but the rest of the cocktail might make a difference.
ETA: Damn, I didn't type fast enough. Ah well, maybe by the time you see this, the full Excedrin cocktail would be do-able. Rest well, smonster, and feel better soon.

Thanks, WS, but caffeine gives me headaches, unlike other people. I believe drinking coffee before eating was a key factor in this one.
Really lying down now.

Oooh, Nora, that sounds amazing!
