I woke up at 3:30 this morning (went to bed at 12:30) and have been awake since. I can't sleep, so I'm wasting time looking at gossip websites. What a great way to start the day! I would normally be getting up in about 15 minutes from now to get ready to go to the airport. My mom has been staying with me the past two days and we are leaving for New Orleans at 8am this morning, flying out of SFO. Woo! I'm so excited to go down to the South for my first time. I don't really know what to expect. I've been reading this book called Letters From New Orleans by this guy who lived there for three years, so its kind of helping me get an idea of what to expect (basically, a lot of weird stuff plus poverty and devastation. Woo!)
Yesterday my mom and I walked around at Embarcadero, bought some gift wine for the people we'll be staying with in New Orleans at World Market, then picked up Anton in the Mission and went to the Cliff House, had a couple drinks and hung out on the beach. It was a great, warm day. The day before that (Saturday) my mom arrived at 2:40 at SFO and we went straight from there to get lunch at a Thai restaurant down on Lombard, then walked around the Japanese Gardens at Golden Gate Park, then relaxed at home and chowed on some Chinese food.
We've had a lot of fun so far, I'm really excited to see what we are going to do next.
