Had a slow early morning for Histology review today - had to go home and nap afterward. I ended up going to run an errand before going back to school for the afternoon. My sister wanted a Christmas gift for her boss, who likes Tabasco sauce on everything. Go figure that Tabasco is made in Avery Island, LA, and you can get almost everything Tabasco at the Tabasco Country Store in the French Quarter.
I made sure to googlemap everything before I left so I could get there and to school and back to studying in the most efficient way possible, but somehow I still missed the turn after getting off I-10. It wouldn't have been so bad, but I kept driving straight, looking for the Esplanade so I could make a right turn and driving straight off this particular exit takes you right into the Ninth Ward. If that wasn't bad enough, I didn't realize where I was and crossed the bridge over the canal into the Lower Ninth Ward. It's not actually as devastated-looking as I expected; just pretty deserted, but it was a sunny day and everything seems to look better in the sunshine.
I made a quick stop at the Tabasco Country Store before running over to Cafe du Monde for beignets, which I haven't had in awhile, before driving back into downtown and studying the Ear. Fun fun. I just have Eye, Lymph, and Respiratory system left to do before Friday.
