Visit this sickly little orphan of a website (it's being constructed when I get around to it), and you will find my first Flash animated project.

That's right! Just for you!

Last night, the first meeting of the newly-resurrected Asheville Ballroom Dance Club took place. Dylan and I had set up a booth at the beginning of the semester for the student organization fair, and we had received a LOT of interest -- over 170 names and email addresses in all.
