in the desert

So i just found out that Julie Powell, of the famous (in my world, anyway) Julie/Julia Project will be in Boston and Cambridge on October 19. In fact, the Cambridge event (the site is down right now, but I'll put in a link later) is in the evening, and the cost will include a copy of her new book and dinner w/Julie. So much fun!

But, as these things usually happen, I will be in ARIZONA. I really do love my grandparents, so much, but what harm would moving my trip by a day do . . .?

I'm seriously thinking about it. Anybody want to come along? :)
