I didn't get a chance to run during the day because of all the meetings I had (from 8am-8pm) so I ran on the treadmill at the hotel before bed.  Just a quick 3 miles to get to work off all the yummy fried and cheese filled food I've been eating.  I've def been loosing poundage becasue my suits are fitting way better since I was last wearing them in Sept!!

I'm a little flustered at this meeting, I want to go hang out in the evenings but none of my friends want to and I'm not one to wander around alone and meet new people so I just end up doing nothing at night.  It's especially lame becasue the French Quarter is so much fun at night, It's great with the drinks and the music and the vibe.  So, if any bloggers live in NOLA and want to hang out, hit me up!  Maybe one night I'll suck it up and go out alone.  Social Distortion is playing Tuesday at the House of Rock, and while I'm not a huge fan of theirs it'll prob be a cool concert and something to do.

ran in the garden district before I had to head over to the convention center.  The garden district is super hip looking and someplace I'd totally live/visit/hang out.  Did a nice pace of 7:26.  My dress shoes tore up my heals when I was wearing them the other day so my socks are a bloody mess!.  I really hate blisters, oh well.

Still in New Orleans for 1 more day and ran after my conference on St. Charles Pl.  It's this cool street with a median that the trolley uses.  The median is nice grass and I must have seen 15+ runners on it at like 5pm which was pretty cool, just gotta make sure you don't get ran over by the trolley.  Did it in 36min.  I think I'm in good shape for the Turkey Trot next week.  It's back to Buffalo tomorrow to reality which is sad. Oh well
