A Seasonal Guide to the Best Time to Travel to New Orleans
New Orleans, with its vibrant culture, rich history, and distinctive charm, is a city that beckons travelers year-round. However, the best time to travel to New Orleans can vary depending on what you want to experience. Whether you're drawn to the city's lively festivals, its temperate weather, or its quieter moments, here’s a guide to help you choose the optimal time for your visit.
Spring: A Blossoming Experience
From Walk to May, the climate is wonderfully warm, with temperatures extending from the mid-60s to the moo 80s Fahrenheit. This is an ideal time for outdoor activities and exploring the city's historic neighbourhoods and lush gardens. Spring is arguably the best time to travel to New Orleans if you want to experience the city at its most picturesque. Spring also brings a flurry of festivals. The most notable is the French Quarter Festival in April, which showcases local music, food, and culture. The Jazz & Heritage Festival, held in late April to early May, is another must-attend event, featuring a diverse line-up of musical acts and cultural exhibits.
Summer: A Time for the Bold
If you’re looking to experience New Orleans in a more laid-back, less crowded atmosphere, summer can be an exciting time to visit. From June to August, temperatures can be hot and humid, often reaching the high 80s and low 90s. This is also the season when the city sees fewer tourists, which means more opportunities to explore popular attractions with less waiting time.
Summer is also a good time for those who enjoy unique local events. The Essence Festival in July celebrates African-American culture with music, empowerment seminars, and food. Additionally, the city's many jazz clubs and bars offer live performances throughout the summer months, ensuring that the city's musical spirit remains alive.
Fall: A Festival of Colors and Flavors
Fall is another excellent time to travel to New Orleans. From September to November, the weather begins to cool down, with temperatures dropping to the 70s and 80s. The lower humidity and pleasant temperatures make it ideal for walking tours and outdoor adventures.
Autumn also brings a series of exciting festivals. The New Orleans Film Festival in October showcases independent films from around the world, while the Voodoo Music + Arts Experience, also in October, and features a mix of live music, art, and interactive experiences. Additionally, Halloween in New Orleans is a unique celebration with elaborate costumes, themed parties, and spooky events throughout the city.
Winter: A Festive and Cozy Retreat
Winter is a wonderful time to visit New Orleans if you’re interested in experiencing the city’s festive spirit. From December to February, temperatures are mild, ranging from the 40s to the 60s, making it comfortable for exploring. The holiday season in New Orleans is filled with lights, music, and seasonal events, including the Celebration in the Oaks in City Park, which features dazzling light displays.
Mardi Gras, usually held in February, is one of the most famous and vibrant festivals in New Orleans. It’s an experience unlike any other, with parades, masquerade balls, and lively street parties. In any case, be arranged for swarms and higher costs amid this period. If you’re looking for a more relaxed visit, aim for the weeks before Mardi Gras to enjoy the city’s festive atmosphere without the massive crowds.
No matter when you choose to visit, New Orleans promises a memorable experience filled with music, history, and unparalleled charm. Choosing the best time to travel to New Orleans depends on your preferences and interests. Spring offers a perfect blend of pleasant weather and bustling festivals. Summer provides a quieter, yet still lively, experience. Fall brings cooler temperatures and unique cultural events, while winter showcases festive celebrations and mild weather.

Both bands are awesome, this meme is cliché, but since I can't resist...
Now that I got that out of the way, I have to ask: Who's the Kendall, James, Carlos, and Logan in *NSYNC (and vice versa)?
#Does anyone have that BTR interview from the 2022 iHeart Music Festival?#The one where they're joking about who was going to be Kendall's best man and he goes “it's gonna be may”?#I wanted to include it but I couldn't find it ANYWHERE#its gonna be may#big time rush#nsync#boy bands#kendall schmidt#logan henderson#carlos penavega#james maslow#justin timberlake#jc chasez#joey fatone#lance bass#chris kirkpatrick#my gifs

turned 30 yesterday and thought about how incredible it is to be publicly trans in a very prominent tech field, and how amazing the outpouring of support has been. feeling good about life and happy to still be here :)
#incessant meowing#me#and the best part is that i'm not the only public figure trans person#the awful hateful people are still out there for sure but like..... the support is stronger#we are finding community and employment and it's NORMAL#it's still hard sometimes but for the most part i realize that i am just.... /safe/#and the realization hits me like a freight train every time and makes me want to weep with gratitude!#like i'm still here!! i'm still here and i'm not going anywhere!!!#it's bittersweet to think about the fight that went into this and still goes into this#not just for me but every lgbt person in america right now#but i am never ever going to take for granted the fact that i am standing on a mountain built by decades of activism#and i hope i can help pave the path up it for others to follow

Jaime having feelings for Linda pisses me off so bad 😭
#for SO many reasons#like I was digging the way they had a purely platonic best friend relationship between a guy and a girl bc that is FAR too rare in media#only to find that nahh there is in fact something more.. at least on Jaime's end#and ALSO it makes him hugely less sympathetic bc he really has no right to get upset at Chris hanging out w Robert#if he's literally got feelings for Linda at the same time#when Chris and Robert really did nothing but be friendly with each other (god forbid)#Not to mention it doesn't even go anywhere and Linda pairs far better w Bonnie overall.. she's defo a lesbian anyway#like ughhh it's so pointless and only takes awayyy#anyway complaining done

I always feel bad for being even a little dissatisfied with my circumstances and then I remember that most of the people around me (both irl and online) would probably go absolutely bonkers in my circumstances
#like. i literally have no money. i dont buy things. i dont ask for things#it has always been like this#its not that i dont *want* money- its just that i dont have a choice being disabled and all#and i have all my necessities provided (well most of them) so like. i would feel ungrateful for wanting anything more#and like i dont think i deserve anything 'extra'. anything beyond the necessities because i cant earn it#i cant pay for it myself. so i just dont really think about the things that i want but dont need that much#another thing that would probably drive a lot of people insane is that i dont have any irl friends and dont really leave my house#except for shopping. which is anywhere between once a week and once a month#i have no job- that alone is distressing for a lot of people. unemployment can be very hard on people's mental health#and i mean evidently it is hard on mine as well. but i dont know any alternatives#people like to feel needed. they like to feel like they have a purpose#people going through unemployment often find that they have all this time suddenly but they dont know how to fill it up#all the things they had fantasized about doing are suddenly not that fun because they are the only option#anyways. rant over idk where i was going with this#i think im in desperate need of validation perhaps and im trying my best not to make this about pain olympics#or some weird type of bragging. thats not my intention

#when i was younger i would validate my dumb decisions by saying i have to learn one way or another#and that i will never have regrets because i always did what i thought was right in the moment#or what felt right#whether it was the best decision or not#but now at 24 i do have a lot of little regrets#you don't think about it when you're younger but around this age i realized damn#i have to live in this body and mind for like many more decades#god willing#and these memories are not going anywhere#and they only get more soured as i learn more#& find the answers to my insecurities & falsehoods & evrrything that lead me to make dumb decisions#i get cringe memories all the time out of nowhere#then all you can really do is romanticize the past to get over it#romanticizing things is literally the answer to everything right now

i am my father's son (enjoyer of irl sidequests)
#i didn't get to do the sidequest i almost got though 😔#i exited my apartment. theres a guy outside and i greet him bc i assumed he was a neighbour#and he greets me back and then hes like im sorry i hopped over the fence as a shortcut idk if that's fine#nd then continued and said he'll check if he dropped something#and i'm like yea ok sure!#bc i was going to lidl and i wanted to get going but i did just stand there for a bit in case the guy needed help or something#then he emerged from the fence area and he was like ''if you find something in there can you pick it up akd put out a note'' and i was like#yea ofc! i'll do that if i see anything#and then he was like this is a very nice area so i trust people will let me know if i did drop something#and i was like for sure#im not great at smalltalk but he was very polite so i tried my best#also he seemed like he wasnt having the best time#he might have been on something bc he was slurring his speech and drooling a lot and there was a certain look in his eyes but honestly that#none of my business#we said bye and i sat in my car and then he was like ''hey actually i live like a minute away super close but my bag is super heavy#can i get a ride there it's super close next to [redacted]''#and i moved my bag from the front seat and was like ''yea sure''#and then he stared at me for a bit and was like ''actually i dont want to bother you have a nice day bye'' and left with a wave#i was like you too and waved back#he didnt look like he had any trouble walking so i came to the conclusion that he's fine and then went to lidl#but honestly i am a bit disappointed he didnt want me to give him a ride after all bc he seemed like he would have interesting things to sa#he was super polite and talked a lot and despite me being a finn i dont always mind strangers talking to me#bc if i have nothing important to do it's like. might as well!#another chat outside my apartment ive had was this old lady and she knew a lot about the history of the area we live in#and it was very interesting and also like i said if im in no hurry to go anywhere i love listening to ppl yap about whatever#i hope both the fence hopping guy and the old lady are doing good#leevi talks

im feeling a little bit peeved regarding the fact I havent been able to find this one book i want in about any bookstore ive been in for around 2 or so years. and you might be thinking. "oh it must be a foreign book," or "you could just order it online," and to that id say. WRONG AND JUST NOT POSSIBLE😭😭!!!!
the thing that makes me not finding it at any bookstore terrible is that this is not a foreign book— not in a different language, not from a different country— NO, ITS A PANAMENIAN BOOK!!! aka... THE COUNTRY IM LIVING IN!!!! AND I CANNOT FIND IT ANYYYWHEREEE!!!!
and it simply does not appear to be sold online so im starting to think I am cooked 😓 for a book that was one of the best sellers in the country 15 years ago it sure has become invisible
#i talk!!!#and it aint like time gon reveal it to me... its from 2008 as time goes by i think it'll just get harder to find if its even being sold now#i find it strange considering how important panamenian literature has been to our culture and the emphasis on it#how come one of its best sellers from years ago has gone missing...#its even stranger because it touches on deeply saddening subjects and moving on in life. EXACTLY THE TOPICS PANAMENIAN LITERATURE EATS UP#has the culture around panamenian literature changed so much i cant even find it anymore ... i just dont know what to do 😓#AND YOU MAY ASK WELL MICHAEL WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF THIS BOOK#you dont have it why are you so hellbent on finding it anywhere you go#answer to that is i have read it. 7 years ago when my teacher found out i enjoyed reading and let me borrow it to read#i didnt really grasp what was going on but it was very comforting... AND NOWADAYS IM WELL AWARE IT HAD HAPPENED TO ME????#THAT BOOK WAS ME. THAT BOOK WAS ME ?!?!?!#so now im hellbent on being able to read that book again i know if i read it nowadays it'll make me cry like a baby#back then i used to see things like that and not bat an eye even if they happened to me because i didnt see it that way#i was convinced it wasnt a painful lonely traumatic thing so of course it isnt the same thing i thought NOW I KNOW IT IS#OF COURSE THAT BOOK WAS COMFORTING IT WAS LITERALLY ME UGJRHJ#I MUST FIND IT somehow .... somehow 😭

Gatekeeper Gostoc up in Stormveil trying to beat his Godrick-dribbling record when suddenly the very stars drop from the sky and blows Limgrave a brand new hole:
youtube
#Radahn did gank me once or twice with the meteors but he's been bested#(not The Big Meteor™️ I managed to haul ass away from that one in time hehe)#(I was just too busy whaling away at him to notice that the small purple ones had started moving)#that beautiful singing going away forever was honestly kind of a bummer though :(#i'd heard rumours about the [redacted] boss that pops up in Redmane after you beat Radahn#but I was thankfully able to bust up [redacted x] before [redacted y] could even get on its feet#[redacted y] might be a bastard but its combat style is very polite and tactful to be honest#i used to find them impossible earlier on but perspective has since been gained from certain other bosses hn#otherwise i've just been running around Caelid trying to clock and clear out things i'd missed#both rancid tree chunks (whatever their name was): check#3 dragons (Rotting One - Big Old One w/babies and Overleveled One on the bridge to Beast Sanctum that was probably meant for later): check#i think the whole dragonbarrow place might've been intended for later judging by the rune-output but i mean#it was right there#also that big jar challenge up north is some bullshit wtf#some of those bastards can just flat out zap me to death from anywhere before I can even sneeze#ølden ring#tomorrow we're heading down The Hole™️

people interacting w wgoin in my notes... this would be a rly bad time to say all my writing will probably be on hiatus for the indefinite future huh
#not like it makes a practical difference considering i only upload twice a year at best#but im realising how much my writing is shame motivated and its just not sustainable or healthy#it saddens me that these stories i invested So much time and effort into will probably never get finished#i wanna hold out hope that they will but#i dont want anyones expectations to be too high#bc knowing myself they probably wont#i started wgoin thinking that this would be the story i commit to finishing and not just abandon as soon as i get bored#but that was before i had really realised how my brain works#and for a while writing these chapters have felt very forced#gbgb had a much better run till it crashed and i was just unable to pick it back up#tbh that one could potentially still be saved bc of how open ended it is if i get any inspo for it back whatsoever#bc it had no strict plan i was entirely making it up as i go#and im realising thats how i write best. i tried to plan wgoin so id commit to finishing it but im realising that has the opposite effect#if i plan anything too thoroughly writing it becomes like gnawing on lead#cause i got all the dopamine out of the idea already#i write best when i have nothing but a vague idea or a vibe#gbgb crashed bc i ran out of vibes and ideas but if i find any again who knows#there is the possibility where i scrap the plan i had for wgoins entire plot and make the rest up as i go#which i might try purely bc i love the story sm#and i think i enjoyed writing it most back in the first three parts where i Was making it up as i went#which is why im saying indefinite hiatus instead of discontinued#bc there is hope for them. just not. much#so if u stick around maybe follow me on ao3 if u dont wanna see all my posts n just my stories#maybe in 3 years time youll see another wgoin notif or sumn#sorry to the small but dedicated handful of readers who really loved these fics#i wanted to write more for you guys bc ik its hard to find this kinda fic anywhere else; its why i started writing it#but i am but one unmedicated autist w severe adhd. we r working on the unmedicated part tho#ive learned so much abt how my brain functions now n how to make the most of it tho#i told myself id finish any new writing before i post it. so know anything new Will be complete :3#mischiefing time

i love that the Bluetooth on my chrome book sometimes is just impossible to turn on. not like there's an error message. like you hover over it or click on it and nothing happens
#love it (kill me)#every time I power down my computer its like roulette#doesn't matter that there's full bars of wifi or anything#just disables itself with no explanation message or anything#my best bet is to restart and hope it decides to turn on bluetooth#also love that I cant find an explanation anywhere online for this#nothing about that is inconvenient or aggravating (going to start breaking things)

#like i dont want to rent bc its just money going up someones ass every month but investing in a house loan would Put the money somewhere#plus when its paid off i can resell and get the money back after all those years in a sense#but gOD im only 23 going on 24 is that not too youngGG UGH#i got the money for a house loan?? i think?? a good foot in the door so to speak#bc god the rent is just so high for fucking everywhere and to think its just not going anywhere long term kills me#my options seem to be rent house for crazy price every month or decent trailer in the sketchiest trailer park known to man#all the decent apt or house rent is in citys like hOURS AWAY UGHH#but finding a decent house to be in for a decade n a half or so and just putting money into that??? sounds best#i never planned on living in this shitty town long term but lets be real years are going by dangerously fast to me now so that long doesnt#seem so long now and i can plan on where i want my Long Term house for my milfsona in life while getting credit/ experience#but god loans??? down payments??? alllll that Important Document shit??? cripplingly terrifying#BUT the payoff like in unit washer and dryer some Actual room advanced privacy just being able to have my own 110% space ooooffff#def going to do a HELL of a lot more research and talk with peers but the discussing ive done so far sounds like i have a fighting chance#plus i was so terrified of moving out and fucking up something important after being backed into a corner at 21 and now look at me💪#doin p alright so far i think#the only problem is the time i have and whether i can find a decent house around here thats affordable

But what if I've felt like I'm too traumatized to have friends, practically since I was born?
#ptsd#cptsd#being afab and constsntly yelled at for everything especially my autistic traits#being given away and given up on like a puppy that ppl view as an object#never living anywhere longer than a year a constant chsnging school environment#never knowing where i was going to be next year or what foster family I'll get this time#foster parents were shitty towards me#ive been kicked while i was already down so many times. every big life trauma from kidnapping to csa to best friend passing away#people used my brother passing away as a reason to leave me? because they did fucking nothing and although i never pointed it out#they knew it. they abandoned both of us and saw one die and then abandoned me too#ive literally never done anything but stand up for them and k myself for them and im tired of finding people#who say they can love me and they treat me like i don't exist. oh im not your vacation friend. or your craft friend.. or holiday friend..#i just feel like this is the rest of my life#and i feel truly alone and i haven't known how to cope. i don't know anyone else who spent their entire childhood in foster care and hospita#and the people i did know are in a different place than me as in violent and acting out and refuse to process things#last time i felt like this i started acting in a way i didn't like- not violent but just in a way i didn't like.#i feel like the only way to avoid reverting back is to isolate#personal#vent
