Louisiana Tech Jazz Ensemble

I got up well before nine this morning, just because. Professor De Mattos covered several topics during French class this morning. The class is a bit behind so he’s been rushing through things during this last week of classes. Among other things, we went over household vocabulary and superlatives. After class, I went to the student center and got something to eat before taking a seat. The Louisiana Tech Jazz Ensemble performed this afternoon at 12:30. They have a 20 piece band, all competent musicians, some particularly talented. They played a number of songs, 50′s to 70′s jazz music and some swing. They sounded fantastic and it was a very enjoyable concert. It’s been a good while since I saw a live jazz performance. I went back to my room after the concert. I spent some time looking for some new music for my MP3 collection. I remained in my room until about five. I went to Tolliver Hall for a while. I intended to make my way to the cafeteria for dinner but I was never that hungry. I did, however, have an unproductive conversation with Khadijah before returning to my dorm for the evening. I didn’t really do much aside from watching The Boondocks.

September 03: Denver in September
Today was the first of a five day trip to Denver with my friend Bianca.  Tropical Storm Lee was moving towards the Louisiana coast today, bringing substantial but intermittent rain since yesterday.  I wasn’t really worried about flight delays but I did think street flooding could keep us from the airport.  The ride to the [...]

August 26: Progress
Nearly two months have passed since my last post.  Seeing a June date on my homepage after all this time has finally compelled me to throw another entry on here.  I had planned a nice little summary of my month of jury duty at Orleans Criminal District Court but I couldn’t muster the enthusiasm.  I [...]
