Mardi Gras

Happy Fat Tuesday, all. To hell with Valentine’s Day, this is a holiday I can get behind. My plans for the night are dinner with J and friends and then a truly obscene amount of drinking.

I drove down to New Orleans twice in college for Mardi Gras, and well, I can’t really remember anything that happened, but from the photos I had a great time.The only problem is the drive back is a bastard. It’s long, and having a car full of tired hung over idiots makes it a thousand times longer.

I know I should say something about the rich cultural history of New Orleans and blah blah blah, but I just like excuses to drink a lot. You’ll notice a deep connection to St. Patrick’s day as well, and Cinco de Mayo.

Why respect cultures when you can appropriate their holidays as an excuse to binge drink?
