Nora is the professional, I would definitely take her recommendations. FWIW, the Morial Center is mostly the Warehouse District (it's very long), near the CBD, and getting to the Garden District or French Quarter or Marigny should be easy.
All my clothes that need to be clean for this week are in the dryer*, this Malbec that is supposed to go well with blue cheese and grilled meats is pairing well with the not-fit-to-serve-other-people chicken biscuits, and there is a fuckload of TV I haven't seen. Jeez, I let the Fall season get well underway without paying attention. Oh, I did register and pay for my bellydancing class through the end of October, so that's also something.
'* pending the sorting of clean clothes into daily outfits once they come out of the dryer. I'm considering this week Halloween Week and dressing accordingly. I've actually planned my outfits through next Tuesday (well, not the weekend, because I have no idea what I will do over next weekend. Maybe nothing? Maybe I made plans and forgot them? It's a mystery)
