The Call
I post on Facebook I will be visiting the south and Texas. About 50 now single ex-boyfriends ask me out, and one hundred old school friends offer to buy me dinner. I try to have a party in Virginia, and crickets sing next to my phone as way fewer people call. I am trying not to be a negative Nelly! However it is a prime example of the fact that it is not me, and the social world just in fact sucks in Virginia. I am so visiting the south more this year. This is my birthday week, and the social void hurts most this time of year.

DC to New Orleans Trips
It isn’t called hoarding if it is books you have way too many of in your house.
Re-reading Tale of the Body Thief as it is my most loved Anne Rice book, and I have tickets for the Anne Rice book fan club ball in New Orleans this October. In this book magicians go to New Orleans, Washington DC, and Virginia just like I have lived. It oddly mirrors my life right now for I have lived in all these places. Great for getting in that dark-romantic poet sort of mood.
“Come celebrate the Anne Rice’s Vampire Lestat Fan Club’s 30th year of existence and the 300th year of the City of New Orleans! Vampires love New Orleans… especially Lestat!” – Sue Quiroz
