My holiday break
My holiday break began in New Orleans with my brother, mother and father. You could just guess the crazy stories and adventures that took place.
It was very interesting to see the state of the city and the spirits of the people of New Orleans. I tell you it looked like a ghost town. Nobody was really on the street and the resturants were half full. We had some of our food on plastic plates and plastic silverwear. Help wanted signs are on every door, except that the rent has been raised too high for someone to actually live there. There are struggles being faced and I kind of feel like it’s a great oppurtunity for New Orleans to reinvent their urban city. Who knows if that will happen.
I will also give a shout out to the Krazy Korner on Bourbon Street where we all got Krazy. For those of you who don’t know I went to New Orleans for a wedding of a family friend Jake Tompkins. The whole famliy was there. we all had a GREAT time.
Then a week of movies, shopping with my sister in law and having great dinner’s with my family and a wonderful tofu curry at my old resturant Lattitudes!!
Then everything went into swing first of course Progressive Dinner that was as always wild. Then Christmas eve in the bay area with the Lucas’ and then Christmas morning with family and then off to Mor Mor’s for the final frontier of Christmas.
It was wild, fun and full of laughter.
Then Julianna and Lisa arrived at my parnets and we played Apples to Apples with my high school drama teacher and dear friend. Then we drove in the pouring rain to Portland.
I’m back and so happy to be home and see my Ptown family. I missed the snow but feel so thrilled for 06.’ Now the highlight for 06′ is “Fitness 06′” Check in and I will let you know the scoop and if you want any details on any story just ask. I am not a shy individual.
Happy New Year

Somthing that I heard about New Orleans Yesterday: Harry Connick Jr. and some other musicians from New orleans have pooled together enough money to rebuild five city blocks into a planned neighborhood. They all started to get scared that if they waited for the federal government to do something, the music scene that once was the center of the city would be lost. They are doing something about this right now. It’s great to hear that some rich people give back!
