I know darling, but I didn't have to pay for my airfare this time!

When is Marissa's spring break again? Maybe I can convince my stepdad to give me his Aloha Air miles and that way I can fly into Orange County or Burbank for free.

I'm pretty sure its the 3rd week of March...if you can convince your stepdad, flying into Burbank would be fabulous since I'm so nearby.

Marissa is looking into airfare, I'm working on Nic and the cabana boy, and Howl L.A. is already lined up since Cabana Boy introduced me to a piano player there, too! All I have to do is make the call and we're in, its so sad. lol

alright- I'm thinking GC gathering at Mardi Gras. I'll be around the Phi Psis from LSU and Loyola- see if that saves me some money while down there.

Okay. The begging for miles will begin tomorrow. He has 120,000 and I only need 50,000 for a round trip.

I plan to force Kalin to come with me to Howl New Orleans. Of course we'll do the Pat O'Briens, but I hafta hit up Howl. It just won't be a trip without it!

Lemme know! Kalin and the boys said that I'm the guest of honor so I get to do whatever I want and they'll follow me, providing I honor their yearly "tradition"...and what that is I have no friggin' idea.

Good, I expect to hear an update on your begging efforts very soon. You have to come through for us at least once in 2005, if not for spring break...then for fall break!

Also a warning, Howl is not the same without the whole gang there. I learned that one the hard way. It'll still be fun, just different! You must make sure you have a hurricane at Pat O's!

I know that it'll be different...but luckily Kalin has a whole bunch of friends that will be joining us. And while they aren't you, Nic, Marissa, and Jules...they'll just have to do for now -- and hopefully they won't be too square and they'll actually shake their tailfeathers with me.

Loyola Phi Psis rock! They're extremely nice guys.

Anyone have any suggestions for activities/games you can do at a Mardi Gras party? I brought up the idea to my church group leader yesterday and she loved the idea of all the food and decorations... but we don't have any ideas for activities.

And it's going to be at a church... so it's gotta be toned down... dramatically.

I will be in New Orleans with Bells on!! Just kidding but I will be there! My family is actually from New Orleans & half still lives there so its a tradition that we go! We go for new Years block partys & they are out of this world awesome!!

If you are in New Orleans for Carnival and catch the Rex parade on Mardi Gras Day you might want to check out the neutral ground side of Float 13 and yell "Hay Peter, throw me something". If you attend Mystery, Momus, Proteus, or Rex and Comus balls look for a guy in an Army Blue Mess uniform, about 6'2" tall, 185 lbs, reddish brown hair, and horn rim glasses. I'd enjoy sharing some champagne with fellow GCers.

Will do!

Hopefully I'll still be walking upright and/or alive by then.
