[ # ] It Really Was a Beautiful Day
September 26th, 2006 under Katrina, New Orleans Music, Xavier, New Orleans

IMG_3600My friend Michael invited me to the Saints-Falcons game months ago. I was really excited about going, but I really had no clue how special it was going to be. The day didn’t start off too well. Due to misinformation I wasn’t able to get my motorcycle license yesterday. I so looked forward to riding Michael around on it.

While I was at the DMV, my friend Jerry called and said that I would be teaching two classes at XU next semester and would be brought back full-time in the Fall of 07! Good deal! This great news was followed up by a great set by Cowboy Mouth. My voice was gone before I got into the Superdome! Mike and I listened to the Goo Goo Dolls as we waited to enter the dome. Of course, the U2/Greenday/Brass Band opening was really cool.

Then…the game. It was unbelievable! Thanks Michael! Thanks Jerry!

Man, I am REALLY glad you’re coming back full time! That’s great news for us and I hope it’s great news for you.

And that was a wonderful game!

I did not get to go in the Dome yesterday, but I did partake of the excitement outside. Even though being in a wheelchair made it particularly challenging — I was jostled and couldn’t see the Goo Goo Dolls for all the people — I am so glad I decided to go. It meant a lot to me.

Congratulations on your teaching renewal.
