Momma Was Crazy

We have this big national conference in New Orleans coming up next month. I really need to stop telling business associates that I went to college in Louisiana. They always ask about Mardi Gras and then I tell them I went five times. Inevitably they bring up the subject of earning beads. At this point I laughed and walked away. They don't need to know that we earned them the "right way." Back in the good ole days, before everyone had a camera phone or video camera up their sleeve. Good times, good times....

Bigger deeds for bigger beads...that's all I'm saying about it. (Especially since I believe I was there approximately 3 of the 5 times you were).

Husband and I had that same conversation on the beach Friday. I was telling him I *should* get a bikini after all the women I saw squooshed into them. Then we both laughed because of the camera phone phenomenon! LOL Not a chance I want to be on someone's blog under the "Don't Mo-Blg" LOL
