Bring out your ghosts!
Speaking (figuratively) of ghosts, I just had
dinner/drinks with a ghost from my past, Trai Cartwright. (Formerly Trai
Williams.) I knew she was in LA when I moved here, and it took me this long to
contact her and find a time we could both hook up.

list. I'll hopefully see Joey next week. That'll leave just Vera Nazarian who
I'm e-mailed, we just haven't met up
yet.)
It was wonderful catching up on the
past. Trai is a writer who's been involved in "the biz" ever since college (NYU)
where she studied film. So that makes her a decent contact. She had lots of cool
stories about the last ten years or so. I hope somehow our "professional" paths
cross sometime in the future. (Joey, as I mentioned earlier, is also in "the
biz" so I have more than just personal reasons to want to get in touch with him
again.)
And while I was at it, Bryan and
I were talking about all the people we've wondered about from childhood. We were
mentioning another friend Casey Opdahl--a really funny and goofy guy--wondering
what was up with him. I did a quick Google search and found him quoted in an
article in the Rocky Mountain News. He works at one of the best Fort Collins
hotspots "Coopersmith" as a floor manager (as per the article) so I just wrote
him a litter and dropped it in the
mail.
It's kind of cool to be collecting
old ghosts. Apropos for Halloween I'd say.
