Driving into work this morning, I was thinking of Antoinette, the Voodoo Queen, who read my fortune in Jackson Square when I was on my Honeymoon back in 2000. She told me that "an unborn spirit" was following me around at the time. I now pay $125 a week in daycare for that little spirit.
I was wondering about the Gris Gris that Antoinette and all of the other Voodoo queens must have been spinning furiously to make hurricane Katrina veer to the east at the last minute. The Gris Gris coming out of Mississippi just isn't as strong as that coming out of New Orleans, where the bloodlines of Marie Laveau reside.
I'm glad the Big Easy didn't wash away. Good work, Antoinette.
