rowanfSo I'm sitting in my room eating the roast beef from an Arby's sandwich with some of the Cypress Grove Chevre Lamb Chopper Aged Sheep’s Milk Cheese from last night. I admit that I do feel somewhat deprived that I'm not eating at Tujague’s restaurant (one of the oldest restaurants in NOLA) with the GLBT interest caucus. But I also know how hard it is on the wait staff when you have a party of 30 and someone with special needs. So I'm just not going. Besides I was starving and it isn't for two more hours. But! *sigh* The brisket with remoulade sounded pretty good too.
The caucus had our annual meeting today. We usually try to have a speaker, often from a GLBT archive or history project. So tonight we had Bea Calvert from the Newcomb College Center for Research on Women Archives talking about the New Orleans Drag King Collection... complete with a performance by two local Drag Kings. Bea had brought along a troupe leader and two performers from the Carnival Kings. The troupe leader talked about the poitics of running a troupe and the performers gave us a lip-sync show. It was a total blast. And, of course, I had left my camera in my room when I slimmed down to not carry a purse. *sigh*
