A lot of Catholics here in New Orleans but if you were to ask any one of them why Carnival, which is tied to Catholic traditions, begins on a different day every year, sometimes weeks apart, they just shrug. Tonite's the first New Orleans parade (the suburbs have already had one or two), and its on the mid-city route, which the Rocheblave house is a block and a half from, so Ima go on over, check it out. I'll be pissed if someone is blocking my driveway, but it's highly possible so I should get over it, take a deep breath, before I go. Today I was spraying a primer coat on the sheetrock (yeah, its finished, I ended up hiring it out, mostly, had to sand it myself), and near the end I'm in the kitchen spraying away and I hear a grunt outside and I look out the broken glass of the screwed shut back door and I see near nekkidity of a dude and we have a conversation which is me yelling at him, and him saying he is sorry, but I know how it is when you really gotta go. Shovel work, get me? Later.
