Last night I fired up the Safari on Nola.com and the iTunes to WWOZ and watched my favorite Mardi Gras parade... MUSES. I even pulled my Muses official high heel mardi gras beads down from the shelf and wrapped em around my neck.
The reality is that carnival began back at the end of Christmas but for me the celebration of "Mardi Gras Time" begins with the Muses parade. Now I'm here in my home/office struggling to track my way through a day of work (still recovering from the brain fog of a nearly weeklong cold), raise some money, pay some bills, and get some things done... but all I really want to do is be out wandering around on the streets this weekend, watching parades, listening to music, parading with the Indians and basically experiencing that thing that is Mardi Gras. 
I'm even tracking a whole collection of folks who are Twittering their Mardi Gras experiences.I am in party mode and despite the fact that I am in Petaluma and not in The Big Easy...
I WILL have a Happy Mardi Gras!
Y'all do the same!
