in the clt

i'm in the big clt this weekend. it's been great fun so far. we're actually here for a nascar race [wooowhooo]. but we're staying at a friend's place. this girl is really nice. she went to high school with us, but she's a year older. and it sounds like she just might have my dream job. well, not dream-dream job, but one that i'd like to have right now [she's an editor for a cute little publishing company!]. i guess i don't really have anything to post, like a new link or picture or anything, but i just thought i would share my happiness at making a new friend and having a good time with old ones (& the new one, too!). but...if i really think about it, i might be able to give a link. i went to this one part of town, it was like a little slice of asheville. :) it's called plaza-midwood. and i suggest that anyone that likes the more alternative/less-commericalistic areas, then this is the place. i went to this really cute store, but most of it was highly over-priced. there were a couple of other cute little vintage/thrift stores there, too, but it was too late for to go there.
