(Look at the post on field trips to read more about the last two events.)

Let me know tomorrow if you can go the Friday event and how many are in your party. Tickets are $10 (I think. I'm sure I can get a deal for us if we are more than 10. The same is true for Saturday. If anyone wants to read the play email me and I'll send it to you. "The Piano Lesson" by August Wilson circulates in the public library. COA might even have it.)

Anywho I’m going to the Saturday event, on the 25th, my plans is to bring Chesi, but if she don’t want to go, 9im going. So count me in on Saturday, October 25. Let me know, Ms. Sabir can you get me a ticket or whatever, and I’ll just give you the money.

Umm, I’m not sure about the rest, I’ll see what the crew is doing and then I’ll make my decision, but I’m defiantly going on 11/25/08hands down!

I'll blame it on Faraj. I was getting ready to do the blog Tuesday evening and he dropped by for a conference and by the time we finished it was time for me to leave as the library was closing.
