I apologize for hollering at you through the open windows at Pat O's, but we were so excited to see you walk by! Hope y'all had a great trip down to our fair city.
Hi, your friendly travel agent friend here. If you’re buying a plane ticket for travel between now and Spring Break or summer, buy the travel insurance or make sure you’re using a credit card that offers travel protection. Especially on Southwest.

Is *that part* the abuse? Is *that part* the IVF selection? Is *that part* that they don't really have any relationship with each other other than location? The whole thing is disgusting.

and make sure they have Tito’s before I put shoes on and leave the house.
This year, I'm Thankful for the staff at Touro. In 24 hours, they were able to diagnose me with a rare autoimmune disorder (Guillain-Barré Syndrome) & get me started on treatment immediately. They saved my life & are the reason that a week later, I'm walking with a walker now.

It’s a good time to read the comments, Rico. You’re on a rocket ship to the moon and you’re inspiring others to take mental health seriously.
Currently in the sports bar on a cruise ship where the bartender turned the sound off the NFL game and hollered at everyone to put their masks on unless they were drinking or else he’d turn the TVs off. You know what happened? 100-percent compliance.
Meanwhile — the city has no cops, my electric bill is over $300 despite the house being vacant for a month and our streets are destroyed by S&WB construction and flooding like never before. Why is she allowed to keep doing this?
New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell will speak at the World Cities Summit next week in Singapore.
It's her third overseas trip on official business in five weeks as she faces criticism from council members over recent travels.

She was in her finest desert haute couture (including unreasonable heeled sandals) and her girlfriends were in leather/pleather miniskirts and bralettes. It was … something.
It's official. After nearly three weeks in the hospital, I'm officially going home on Friday! Obviously, there are still more decisions to be made regarding my treatment plan once I leave here, but come Friday I get to sleep in my own bed again!!
Someone threw this to me at the Irish Channel parade yesterday … on a scale of 1 to KILL IT WITH FIRE, how scared should I be? Please advise,

The neuro specialist that I've been waiting to see since January, and finally got an appointment for end of July, just had a cancellation pop up ... for 1 p.m. today. I am in tears.
It's all becoming so real -- discharge paperwork is in the works. As long as my bloodwork comes back fine in the morning (no reason to think it shouldn't), I just have sign-off sessions with my therapists tomorrow and then I'm free to go home after rounds on Friday!!!
Big day tomorrow. My therapy team meets in the morning to do a status update and determine my ultimate path for eventual discharge. I’ve put in some really hard work since I’ve been up here in in-patient rehab therapy. Keep your 🤞🏻🤞🏻 for positive news!
Gonna say this and then leave it … but these Packers fans booed the

Haven’t run into that much today, but the “nice” lady from Covington that told me to move my feet and blanket so she could set down her ROCKING CHAIR and then proceeded to resume chain-smoking Golds and ashing everywhere like it was her front porch was something.
10 years in Fort Worth and I never saw a tornado like what passed through New Orleans today. I saw the hook cloud above my house and then saw the full funnel on the ground and my heart dropped.
Was emotionally preparing myself for the inevitable breakdown and trauma dump tomorrow after a painful weekend and no good news on the infusion front until I decided to check my portal on a whim and ...
I was lucky enough to get a Grail from

I'm so happy she's home!! My little dog went missing years ago but also returned home unscathed thanks to another Good Samaritan. It will take you forever to get over, but she'll have forgotten the whole ordeal by the time she wakes up from her next nap.
Brittney Griner is the best player Kim Mulkey has ever coached, and Mulkey didn't lift a finger while she was in Russian prison. Can't imagine why she might be worried what her former players have to say about her. 🤔
Today, the "For You" tab is actually worth it! Seeing so many people document their first marathon -- which was also MY first marathon eight years ago -- is awesome! Congrats to all the

finishers today!
FYI -- just having a passport and a desire to leave the country doesn't mean you can move to a foreign country no problem. It's expensive, time-consuming and they have to want you to move there (ie. speak the language, make "investments" in the country, etc.).

Already the calls for campaign donations — how about this: No donations until legislation. You want money for your PAC? Do the fucking job you were elected to do, and then you get paid.
More Monday Ws for your ole pal Keels -- not only did my insurance approve the spendy monthly infusions, but I get started with them NEXT MONDAY MORNING. I've never been more excited to sit in a chair with an IV for two days than I am right now.
