Slack-ing off in Vegas

Believe it or not, your reunion planning team has been planning this reunion for well over a year. We signed on for this back in late 2020 and started meeting in January of 2021, meaning we’re coming up on 15 months of meetings and chatter. And most of that chatter happened in Slack. As we… Continue reading Slack-ing off in Vegas

Time to Say Goodbye

The time has come for us to part ways. I know, I know. How will you live without these regular updates from the folks who knew you when, before you got your life together? So what happens now? Our efforts to build an alumni community continue. A local, Raleigh get-together is in the works. Stay… Continue reading Time to Say Goodbye

Can’t Attend? Donate!

Unable to visit with us in Vegas? Understandable. Life is busy and complicated these days. Hopefully next time!

Arts funding from the county is anemic… Continue reading Can’t Attend? Donate!

For information on how to… Continue reading Deadline Approaches

Happy New Year!

Was 2021 supposed to be better than 2020? Or, is 2022 supposed to be better than either 2021 or 2020? It’s all very unclear. Regardless, from all of us, Happy New Year! Here’s to a brighter future.

Zelle it up

I wasn’t aware of this but apparently, Venmo is passe. As a lovely friend recently said to me, “Venmo is for old ladies and drug dealers,” which forced me to ponder how to find a local dealer lest I be considered the former. Apparently, the not-even-new-anymore kid on the block is Zelle (pronounce it like… Continue reading Zelle it up

A Second Note About Covid

The Omicron Variant Back in September, the Delta Variant was all the rage. Now, heading into 2022, it appears the Omicron Variant has supplanted it. Unfortunately, it looks like variants will come and go for the foreseeable future. Corona viruses mutate frequently and not enough of the world’s population will likely be vaccinated to prevent… Continue reading A Second Note About Covid
