The Weekend

I am aware that it's almost the weekend, but I never said anything about last weekend!

It was so much fun!

I wouldn't consider myself a big party person or one that stays out super late...but I do on occasion and it's always a blast!

Joshua's co-worker Derrick had been wanting to meet my friend Dani because, well she's gorgeous. So, he invited all of us to a Voo Doo football game. The Voo Doo team is the arena football team in New Orleans. Dani agreed, mainly because she wanted to see the Voo Doo dance team (not impressive) and because she would get a chance to hang out with her favorite redhead. (that's me ;))

The weather was gross. It rained most of the day and was pretty windy too, but that didn't ruin our fun.

These pictures were taken with my phone..so that explains why they are horrendous. 
 I considered us to be pretty close to the field. The field is only 50 yards and when they push and tackle each other, they sometimes fly into the seats. Scary.

Obviously the boys were not in the mood for the paparazzi.

Our team lost. :( The score was 48-51. Oh well, we were not that upset.

After the game, Derrick wanted to go to Harrah's casino. I'm not big on casinos and neither is Josh. We just don't get a lot of entertainment from it. It was still fun. The boys went to try to win me lots of money while Dani and I found something better to do.

So yummy since we were apparently in a freezer, not a casino that people hang out at.

The boys played for just 30 minutes before they were bored. I did not complain. Ha
So, we went to the club that is inside of the casino. I forgot the name of it, but it was fun. It was more entertaining to watch the little 22 year old boys (NOT Josh and Derrick, boys we didn't know) try to flirt with the married women that had to be at least 40. Silly boys. I'm pretty sure they left with their tail between their legs.

After that, we got a wild hair and ventured to Bourbon. Not the best idea for my hair. It turned into a huge, humid, bozo looking mess. Of all the days I do not carry a ponytail holder, it was that day. So, I went into the little shops looking to buy some, but had to settle for a rubberband. 

Later on, someone dropped a beer bottle on Joshua's foot causing it to bleed and because he was drinking, the blood came pouring out. I was not a happy girlfriend and I am so glad I was not next to him when it happened. I highly doubt I will ever get into a fight with someone and I probably would not have said anything, but if someone tells you redheads can shoot fire balls from their eyes....it's true. ;-) Anyway, I was very nervous about the cut. He went to the bathroom and cleaned it up and the cut is way smaller than we were thinking. Thank goodness!  

After that mess, we continued to dance and have a blast. Then we looked at our watches. It was 3:00 AM! I don't really remember the last time I stayed up that late, much less out dancing. I'm not trying to act like this was the most fun/crazy night of my life, but this is very uncommon for any of us.

We were on the way home, got to a very important bridge to cross to get home...and it was closed!! We had to take a huge detour and didn't get home until around 6:30. Ridiculous.

It's safe for you to assume that Sunday was spent taking naps during the day and full of baggy clothes...and showers..we were gross.

I hope everyone is having a great week!!
