As I write this, I am still trying to process the amazing events that made up Mardi Gras 2015, so as with everything else in my life, I'm going to make a list to figure it all out.
Things I learned during #MardiGrasPartygras15:
1. Taking Megabus can be painless. On the way down and back I didn't run into: any crying children, recently released inmates, people talking the entire trip on their phones (and usually it's been real series, news worthy kind of events), people playing music on speakers for the world to hear, or drunk NBA fans. Honestly, I was shocked and very, very pleased!
2. When taking Megabus (or any sort of public transportation) it pays to be behind on all your podcasts, because it makes the trip fly! Yes, I realized a long time ago I'm (insert whatever age I am here) going on 75.
3. Being an inter-racial couple will get you yelled at while checking out at a grocery store. Sir, me and my friend are just trying to get some cupcakes, fruit, and alcohol, can we live?!
4. Urban Chestnut Brewing Company's apple cider is delicious! Any of my St. Louis peeps that want to send me a case can do so whenever they want to!
5. Shannon has the cutest apartment known to man! She even decorated for my holiday : )
6. French toast casserole is insanely good (but I already knew that)
7. Going to a parade where they throw beads at you sounded fun in my head, but in all reality it is terrifying.
8. People love the selfie stick. #Selfiestickgamestrong
9. Dino nuggets, pizza, weird BBC nature specials, and naps are extremely crucial for any day to go according to plan (commit to the nap)
10. Old strip clubs = great bars!
11. Man in paisley shirts who dance their life away give me the most life!
12. Mardi Gras and Valentine's day = the perfect combination of strange and delightful.
Until next time Mardi Gras!
love,
