night life

Quick note: so I live in the woods, right, and there is a crapload of owls outside totally FREAKING ME OUT. I just finished driving from Winston-Salem back home here...to fall asleep as a character in an Edgar Allen Poe story? Gah, no thanks. Shut up, hooty wildlife you. Take a nap already.

So members of the TIGHT Charlotte slam team drove up to Salem College for an invitational event sponsored by the school, and I won the whole shebang! I am so going to Charlotte next week--those folks are good, like some of the best I've ever seen and heard. Powerful, with deep poetry pockets and good and vibrant souls. Good stuff, good night, yeah! I needed it. Rough week in my world. Bligh.

To recap, SHUT UP, CREEPY OWLS!
