judecorpHaven't had a lot of time to update on the rest of our trip, which has really been beaucoup fun.
Some of the things we've done are: a "Haunted History" tour that we both really liked a lot, a quick casino trip to play some nickel slots in which Jen netted us $50, another trip to Cafe Du Monde for some more delicious beignets, and a teeny bit of souvenir shopping where I bought a ringer tee that says "I [heart] nerds".
Some of the places we've eaten are: Muriel's for a three-course prix fixe wonder, Red Fish for some yummy seafood, Petunia's for brunch this morning, Cafe Beignet for greasy breakfast yesterday, a stop at Haagen Dazs for ice cream, and a stop at a "to go" stand to get Jen a Hurricane.
We took a little walk on the mostly-closed Riverwalk which was really nice, and rode the streetcar again after a quick chat with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hopemcg. We spent a little time sitting in the Place d'Armes as well and, of course, did a lot of walking. We took a little walk down Bourbon Street on Saturday night after a late dinner and it was pretty yucky - some drunk dude decided he would be "funny" and put his arms around us and laugh. I hate that crap. I also hate drunken yelling and idiot fratboy types. Not to mention the lingering smell of piss, sick, and garbage that we were inundated with early Sunday morning when we were trying to catch an early breakfast. Ew.
I'm much more enamoured of New Orleans after Day One. Outside of the looted sports stores near our hotel, all of the touristy stuff is mostly unchanged and open for business. It has actually been incredibly nice to have smaller numbers of people. I like crowds just fine, but I don't think I could handle the craziness of Mardi Gras.
So far, no O. My temps have still been low and I haven't had any CM to speak of, really (which could be because of no O but could also be because of Clomid). My monitor is still reading Low Fertility and I hope that's accurate. I've had some O-pain, mostly on the right side but a little on the left several days ago, so hopefully there will be a bunch of sexy-looking follicles on my ultrasound Wednesday morning.
