Default Well crap !

A buddy of mine lives just of the French Quarter and invited me over for New Years. Bought the ticket and psyched to go. I just learned he got hit by the flu and was at the clinic today. Dammit hell. Non-refundable ticket with a $200.00 cancellation charge for a $300.00 ticket.

Looks like me and Netflix will be ringing in 2018.

Any ideas for a lonely guy that can't afford hookers and blow?

You already have the ticket. Why wouldn't you go anyway? He can be a little bitch and curl up at home with chicken noodle soup while you go out.

I don't think Bourbon Street alone would be much fun.

Hell yes

Last time I was there in 2016 I went with my buddy and his Dart near the end of the Hot Rod Power Tour.
Just go, man.

It'll be in the 40s. I'm guessing they'll be flashing glass cutters.

We were just there the beginning of December and Bourbon Street was completely torn-up, down to the sewers (as if the whole of Bourbon wasn't a sewer already ).

Have fun...

His wife is flying into NOLA today and she said she'd let me know how bad he is. I have not cancelled my flight yet. If I go, I have to add the cost of a hotel and I'll still be alone wandering Bourbon Street in the cold and rain.

Final decision is tomorrow AM.
