Who would like to meet me?

This blogging world is a funny little place. We make friends, email with each other when we are having a bad day or just need to bounce ideas off of. And I love it. I laugh at what I read, I cry at what I read. I shake my head emphatically that Yes! That happened to me too!

And every once in a while, I get to meet some of these people I have become such good friends with.

Last summer, I got to spend a few days with her and her. Their kids were fabulous and getting to go out an have a drink with just the girls was fun.

And now this coming Saturday, I get to meet another blogger.

I know exactly where Julie lives...I had a bunch of friends I played softball with that live in her neighborhood. I know where she works, I know the Target she goes to. And now, I get to meet her and her extremely cute kids for lunch on Saturday.

And all I can say?

YIPEE!

I just hope she doesn't think I am a complete dork (shut up Ray). I am who I am on this blog...I type the words just as I would say them out loud, so there shouldn't be any surprises.

Can you tell I'm excited?!

That is very cool - for some reason (in my mind) you guys already knew each other in real life. Hmmm. Have fun!

I just found your blog and COMPLETELY know what you mean about meeting people in person that you met online. I was part of an online group my entire pregnancy with the twins and it was so exciting, but scary to meet some of the ladies for the first person.
But, it all went well.
Have fun!!!!

Pamela said...

All of them were probably intimidated by thoughts of meeting you --

We all are insecure about meeting someone outside that comfort zone.

my4kids said...

I'd love to meet you! Just live so far away and I don't know anyone on our island that blogs....

Julie said...

Of course I will like you. But will you like me and my cold? I'm going to email you now.
