JazzyFest

Well, sorry for the lack of updates. I guess I tend to take the weekends off as I'm not usually near a computer long enough to type much. Strange, the changes in lifestyle one goes through when one gets a high maintenance dog.

Kayla and I went to JazzFest on Saturday and had a great time. I say "great" because: a) our tickets were free; and b) we had access to the Shell VIP area via our Broadmoor particiapation. Let me tell you, free food, the draft on cable, air conditioning, and an open bar go a long way towards making JazzFest Awe. Some. As evil as Shell is, and as much of the coastal wetlands as they've destroyed through saltwater intrusion, they know how to throw a party.

Still no luck on the apartment front, but we may have a couple leads. Hopefully one of them will turn out well. 20 days and counting!

In a major RHP development, we got called on Friday to schedule our closing appointment. Supposedly at 2:15 Thursday, we're going to close on our RHP grant and two weeks hence it will be sitting in our bank account. I'll believe it when I see it, but it would take some creativity on their part to screw it up now. Of course, I don't put it past them in the least.

Finally, if you're in the area, or lived here pre-K, please take this survey. www.lsu.edu/katrinasurvey. You never know when you'll need data!
