Off to Raleigh!

I'll be in Raleigh , NC this weekend, yay!

Lots of fun people live there, too many to name. I'll probably be out at the Friday and Saturday night dances, so if you'll be there, save me a dance!

I'm going to visit a friend, Abi (strange name coincidence, one of the few dancers in the scene with my name whom I've met), as well as childhood friends Joe Troop (a fabulous bluegrass and hot jazz musician) and Jaclyn Konczal (an amazing artist who is leaving for Uganda on Monday).

And, as I pass through Winston-Salem, NC, I'll have lunch or dinner (probably at Panera) with my grandmother. Granny raised my sister and me after my mother died, and she is one of the most charismatic, energetic people you'll find. Up until a few years ago she toodled around town in a 1965 porcelain white Mustang.

(I was going to insert a poem here about Granny and her Mustang, but somehow can't find it. I hope I haven't lost all of my poetry since sophomore year!)
