I think I have hit my limit today. Jackson is not feeling 100% . We went to our house , No power. The dogs are very upset so we spent time exercising them and giving them treats . I am over this! I know a lot of people got power today so I am hoping. I may let Jackson's dad stay with him at a hotel and head to KW tomorrow. My stress level is so extreme right now on...

New Orleans bar is back open yesterday. I finally threw in the towel and booked a hotel last night. I still don't have electricity and the house was super hot and muggy . Right now Decadence Festival is going on in the French Quarter . Almost every hotel was booked but I finally found one . I am sure when we go for lunch I will have to do a lot of explaining when we see the people enjoying Southern...

I am grateful that my home and the building that houses the New Orleans bar is fine. Haven't heard yet about all the employees but I think the safety issue should be fine. I just finished emptying my fridge. We haven't had electricity in a while and I wanted to make sure the house didn't reek of spoiled food. I know other people aren't as fortunate as we have been over the years with all the various hurricanes that have...

Ok here Isaac comes. The eye of the storm won't hit for a while but it is now pouring in New Orleans. The wind isn't that bad yet! Ok please no flooding!

finally I got back home. They kept the Key West airport closed so Kevin drove Lee and I to Miami. After some delays I got home safe and sound. Jackson and I have charged our computers and we plan on having a " Fringe" marathon if the electricity goes out. Isaac is still a tropical storm and may only hit New Orleans as a Category 1. The New Orleans bar is open. Pre Katrina we used to have really fun...

Fuck, fuck , fuck! So far 3 flights have been canceled. Kevin drove me to the Miami airport . While i await a flight to New Orleans he is driving Lee to the Lauderdale airport to catch a flight to Vegas. A long weekend! On a positive note, even through a tropical storm during evacuations I was able to hire 16 girls for the Key West bar! I am so happy that girls came out to apply even with the...

We are sitting in Key West bar prepping up. Right now its a bit windy but nothing too strong. I am more scared of getting back to New Orleans in time to grab Jackson and the dogs if Isaac hits as a Category 2 hurricane. My luck the path goes right through 3 of my properties. Key West, New Orleans , and I have a condo in Pensacola. Ok well fingers crossed. I have to hope the condo association secures...

Hurricane Isaac. Holy shit! As stores are boarding up their windows and doors, we have actually gotten some girls who applied for the Key West bar! I hired 8 girls so far. Hey we are stuck in Key West during a hurricane we might as well do our jobs. "So girls if you aren't in lockdown at your homes feel free to come into the bar and apply. " Hurricane Isaac cant stop Coyote Ugly. I think we proved that...

What's our contingency plan? Fuck. Sitting in Key Wes because today and tomorow are our Girl Search. Low and behold we are never hurricane warnings. Lee and I are trying to figure out a quick contingency plan now. Never opened a bar with no employees before. Fuck. I need to make a miracle happen pronto ! ( by the way none of the locals seemed worried. Supposedly there will be tons of hurricane parties) fuck how do I get a...
