It was written on the wall...

Here is a collection of things that were written on the break room whiteboard at work.  I didnt take any pics because you aren't allowed a camera at work.

Anyways, the stuff written on the wall is pretty much one of the bright spots in my day.  its pretty amazing how much tact and class people have!

Some things that have been on the whiteboard below:

"He who go to bed with itchy butt wakes up with stinky finger"

Beside a picture of an anime style cat-lady hybrid  "Please date me"

"I quit this bitch!"

Beside someone writing "Lion King at 9:30 tonight!" was written: "I have a boner" (*side note - really dude?  You have a boner for the Lion king?  I think you have bigger problems than work related HR violations)

and my personal fave:

"Me so horny"

It says so much, while saying so little

EDIT:

Almost forgot -

"Mens room needs more____"  One day someone put FARTS in the blank, the next day they put Sanitation.  Childish, but i totally laughed when it said FARTS, because, well, I'm sure that's the one thing the mens room has in abundance.

Geaux Tigers!!

People be crazy....When I woke up today, there was an insane amount of cars parked around the hotel, and people everywhere.  I have no idea when the game starts, I am pretty sure most of these people dont have tickets.

Behold!  The insanity of LSU Football!

I have no idea what GFY means....GTFO would make sense.....

Seems like a lot of people are paying a LOT of money to put tigers on their vehicles.  This one also features a silver tiger on top of it

Things you can buy in Louisiana - Purple and yellow wigs

I have no idea, no do I want to have some idea why this was created

Tiger Beauxt....MY GOD....

These dudes outfits were cracking me up, they had bow ties on too

Hard to see but these guys looked to have some kind of fancy banquet type meal

LSU swing

......Im sure you do, ladies...

Dog in an LSU dress and bow

AMAZING pants

Suspenders of doom

Ok so before I went to this I told Joel I wanted to see a topless woman with her breasts painted like a tiger, I didnt get my wish however I did get to see man breasts lol

Toilet Talk (yeah I'm going there)

So.... something that is different here than it is at home is the bathrooms. 

There is something terrifying and strange about both the construction and people in washrooms in Louisiana. 

First off: The toilets.  They are either too high so I am like a small child with legs dangling or they are too low so I'm eating my knees.  What gives?  Second: The way they are built is so that the water is practically touching your butt. Its sooo strange.

The next thing is honestly so disturbing to me....the water in the toilets is warm!  Its pretty much giving my ass a facial every time I sit down.  I have literally seen a steaming toilet.  This is NOT right.

Other weird bathroom things include:  Many people don't wash their hands -  Gross.  Also they always make a really loud sighing sound either during whatever or when exiting the room.  The stalls are always made so there are large gaps in the construction so you can basically see the other people.  They re also made short on top so you can basically see over them, and high on the bottom so most of your leg shows.  Basically, everything is wrong with bathrooms in Louisiana.

That is all.

Self guided tour of the Garden District

Here's some pics from my self tour of the Garden District.

It was pretty quiet here but the roads for walking or for driving were horrible!  Really cool examples of the types of homes in NOA.

Christmas decorations in a random street tree

So cute!

Weird tree with a really smooth and shiny texture.  It looked like plastic!

Side view of the old wall lining the Lafayette Cemetery #1.  I really wanted to visit, but it was only open until noon. :(

The buildings are very tall here, I wonder what they look like inside...

It's for sale! Lets move in!  Its across the street from the next house....

Nice right?  All these homes had lanterns with flames burning in them...in the day....when its over 100 degrees.

Like a dolls house!

This one was neat because of the double stair cases and the door on the bottom

Really pretty iron work

Melting to death at the zoo!

I visited the Audubon Zoo on Saturday...during a heatwave...without a hat.   The website for this place shows that its a zoo, aquarium, waterpark? and has a big insect exhibit as well as IMAX.

I drove all the way to NOA, go to pay for aquarium + zoo when I'm informed that the aquarium is across town.  What the???  So you pay on one part of town then drive to another part to see the aquarium?!  No thanks.  So I payed for the zoo and went in.  First of all, this place is more Disneyland than it is Zoo.  A big emphasis is on buying things and rides/waterpark than there is on the animal exhibits. 

Many of the animal areas lead around winding paths that go nowhere but to benches and statues, or force you to go through a store to see the other animals.  While I was pleased to get some A/C to cool me in between bouts of sweating to death, it seemed really consumerist and strange. 

This was in one of the stores, I wish it was for sale.

Also some of the animals didn't have what I would consider a big enough habitat or nice enough.  It did seem like they were updating some things though, such as the Elephant area. 

Also it was SO hot that many of the animals were out of view or away (elephants, male lions, and about 10 others).  So While I get that these poor animals were too hot, I was also bummed that I drove so far and didn't get to see lots of them.  Oh well.  On to things I DID manage to see!

I really liked the primate exhibit, lots of really cute little guys playing.

Not easy to see but this one was sooo tiny and adorable, I want one!

These two were so adorable, the baby kept flopping into the black bucket there under them.

Snapped a pic because you can literally see the fear in the eyes of the prey :p

All the turtles were covered in algae/moss/something

Biggest turtle I have ever seen

People actually started to walk away from this giraffe because he was "judging them" lol

I look ok...but I'm going to perish...its too hot.  I am sweating from areas that NO human should sweat from.  I'm talking its running down my legs...this is terrible.  How did people live in New Orleans during the civil war? Or before there was air conditioning....I cant even imagine.  This place is mostly shaded and I am losing like 10 pounds of water weight and salt.  Crazy!

YAY!  Nutrias!  Finally get to see some swamp rats!

Huge alligator with the below sign beside him...

I like how they need to remind people not to harass the animals ><

Crawfish!  Get in my belly!

The famous Albino Alligator!  In truth he had a small enclosure and looked sad to me...also I presume because of the albinism, he was in the dark.

Now this guy has the right idea!  Sit your ass in that fountain and take a damn bath.

A Tapir.

This is exactly how I felt, I'm with you!  I give up, too hot!
