Announcement

Dreaming in Stereo will be wrapping up at the end of the month. I'm graduating school, and will be focusing my energies on finding a job somewhere on the east coast (anyone looking for a fresh Library Science graduate, hi!), so that'll be it for the show. The itinerary is to do the next two weeks live, then the 28th will be a taped "Best of 2008" show (since I'll be visiting New England that weekend).

Thanks to everyone who listened, commented, or even thought about the show.
