It’s happening!
We finally worked out the contract on the house, and it went binding on Saturday. Nothing is ever final until the closing (which is September 14), but now we are locked in to a contract with buyers, and they can’t back out without losing their earnest money. All that is left to do that could [...]

SuperBowl!
So New Orleans will host the 2013 Super Bowl. That’s great news, since it means that the Saints and the state reached an agreement to keep the team in New Orleans until 2025. The last time I was in New Orleans during the Super Bowl was in 1997. Jamie and I marched up and down [...]

Just so everyone knows
My life is a total mess right now. I have a job that I really enjoy, in the city that I love. Unfortunately, my wife lives and work in a different city, one that is about 500 miles away. I also own a house that will not sell in said faraway city. This makes my [...]

It’s my last day at work!

If a tree falls in your backyard, does anyone hear it?
Apparently not. We had a big thunderstorm on Saturday afternoon, and one of our trees in the backyard fell down on our fence and into the neighbor’s yard. We didn’t even notice until Sunday morning. Click the image for more photos.

Congrats to Catherine and Marc
Regular elbuzzard reader Catherine got married over the weekend to a real nice guy named Marc (yes, with a C). The reception was a blast. The ham was delicious, and Leslie was thrilled that there was antipasto with olives and such, claiming that “Catherine knows what you need to throw a wedding.” We forgot to [...]

NFL Alumni?
So apparently the car that parks on our new street has a bumper sticker that reads “NFL Alumni.” Leslie and Beth noticed it last night. Who could it be? I really hope it’s Joey Harrington. How awkward would that be if I was mowing the lawn in my Harrington Lions jersey he walked out? Since [...]
