Today is my brother Sean's birthday! And he couldn't have had a better gift than getting into the Sugar Bowl for free! He just slipped in when an attentand wasn't attending. He didn't have to pay hundreds of dollars for a ticket. But not only did he get to see the game, but he also got to see L.S.U. win! He was ecstatic.

Philip and I did a few errands on the westbank... and while eating at I.H.O.P. a young lady came over and asked me for my autograph. I recognized her voice, but when I turned my head I expected to see someone who looked more like Lulu Roman, but instead I saw a Mariah Carey look-alike!

Let me explain... this woman is my friend Rose. I haven't seen Rose for many years. Rose has the most amazing, bubbly personality. She used to correspond with me when I was in Navy boot-camp... and we also went to see a Sarah McLachlan concert at the Saenger... but since I stopped going to gay bars a long time ago, she and I lost touch. Well... Rose looks fabulous! She used to be extremely overweight... but she has been working out (she must've literally lost like 200 pounds) and she grew her hair out and dyed it blond... and she looks like Mariah Carey (or a cousin of Mariah Carey)! It was SO NICE to see her. She was also with a cute guy (named Wesley) that I think used to do my friend Jason D's hair...

After the errands, Philip and I spent a quiet day at home. He needs his rest.

My brother came over and showered after the Sugar Bowl let out... then he went off to party in the Quarter.
