Getting ready to head out to Oysterbake.

Heather (my NIOSA volunteer fcontact/friend) was telling me to tell the new chicks volunteering with us to wear comfortable shoes. Dont wanna get Fiesta Feet. I told her only people in SA would have any clue what in the hell Fiesta Feet were. lol.

From today's Express News:



It wouldn't be enough if a citywide party that lasts more than a week kicked off with just a bang. So, Fiesta 2005 started officially with four air cannons simultaneously blasting confetti into a crowd of about 1,000 people who gathered early this morning in front of the Alamo Church. The 323rd Army Band immediately added to the atmosphere with festive music as people celebrated by cracking scores of cascarones on each other's heads. Above, Fiesta Court members Vanessa Cobarrubias (right) and Tina Cuellar, crack cascarones on each other.

I so want to go up for Fiesta!! Ahhh! I may head up next weekend with the co-workers though, so there is still a possibility I may make an appearance in SA for Fiesta. I will keep you updated.

Did NIOSA tonight. It was cool, but I didnt drink because I HAVE A COLD and feel like baked ass. The older I get the less I enjoy big ass crowds. Did get my tickets for the Battle of Flowers Parade on Friday. Might as well not work on friday, nothing in town is gonna be open.

Battle of Flowers ROCKED. The seats we bought were under I-35 so we were in the shade, so it was cool. Glad too, cause it was 90 today.
