My parents have power back at their place, although I'm still unsure of the sewerage situation, since Jefferson Parish has mentioned so many times that people should not shower or flush toilets. I guess we can go to my house to shower, then go back to my parents' house to enjoy lights and electricity.
Since the power is back on in my parents' neighborhood my mom and I are planning to drive home tonight. She's picking up groceries right now since there aren't many stores open, but I did hear through LJ's Neworleans community that the Robert on Carrollton is open, as is the Walgreens on the opposite corner. If there's no internet at my parents' house and I get desperate for it, I'll go to Germaine's to sign on there for a little while; I know they had internet at least a couple days ago, because I spotted JP on WoW.
I'm not looking forward to the long drive, but it'll be a relief to be back in New Orleans again! Frankly, I'd be happy to sleep in my car, because I'm just so thrilled to have a home to go back to - with or without electricity!
