I have...I really enjoyed your honesty on this one. I haven't met a fellow blogger yet but I've met pen pals in the past. Some meetings were great, others were something I'd rather forget, ha! Like the one who pulled out a joint and asked us if we'd like to join her?! That was back in our wild and woolly days, needless to say. Regardless of how they turned out, they were all a little nerve wracking to begin with. We want so badly to be liked...it's the human condition we're all born with. I guess if we keep in mind the other person is feeling pretty much the same way, it helps.MissKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12726021829363492972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949599201485766767.post-28957212919396160532010-03-03T22:01:23.545-05:002010-03-03T22:01:23.545-05:00Nice article,

Most odd thing. <br /><br />Glad you enjoyed it and hope I get to meet many of my blogging friends some day.

We feel like such good friends, know so much about one another, and yet, don't really know each other at all. What a phenomenon.<br /><br />Glad you guys met!! Hope to do the same some day! And I'll definitely be doing some hugging!! :o)Mary@Holy Mackerelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04026873878364041551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949599201485766767.post-16663086388091808542010-02-27T16:07:41.201-05:002010-02-27T16:07:41.201-05:00Honestly Linda, I thought it was a good picture (a...Honestly Linda, I thought it was a good picture (although the dog really does look a little uppity). It sounds like the two of you had a good time, and isn't it hilarious how the mind loves to torment us by critically picking pointing out our 'flaws'? Smack it with indifference and just have fun! Life's too short not to :). At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it...Lornahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16324378141061370103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949599201485766767.post-21990494739741247662010-02-26T07:25:08.996-05:002010-02-26T07:25:08.996-05:00I think that the best gift people can give is thei...I think that the best gift people can give is their time -- trinkets either end up collecting dust or in the trash bin, but memories of the things you say and do will stay with you wherever you go.

I'm sure all of us would have had some of the same feelinga in that situation. It sounds like you got through the initial awkwardness very successfully and will indeed have a friendship with a firm foundation. I do hope you have a chance to get together again.Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04810126999695733332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949599201485766767.post-21942019130536170902010-02-25T16:40:39.863-05:002010-02-25T16:40:39.863-05:00I like the picture of you two and don't see an...I like the picture of you two and don't see anything wrong with it. <br />When I met a blogger friend last summer, we felt like we were old friends and couldn't stop talking. We hugged when we met, and hugged when we had to say goodbye. The time was way too short.<br />I would love to meet you and Dana both. And who cares about a cracked windshield or a cracked tooth? I wouldn't care, as long as you didn't say anything about my fat butt!!! lolGingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525015607826244834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949599201485766767.post-23175718178920943982010-02-25T15:53:59.744-05:002010-02-25T15:53:59.744-05:00That's a fine picture of you...I even maximize...That's a fine picture of you...I even maximized it and you STILL looked good!

I just know I would enjoy having coffee and and a chat with so many of my blogging friends. I love your honesty Linda, and I really do like the picture of you and Dana. I am sure she enjoyed you very much my friend.

It would be difficult to meet for the first time with anyone. We tend to have a picture of the other in our head; many times, people look nothing like we imagine. Me, for instance? I look sooooo much younger and put together in person!Rosaria Williamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03133147851332084180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6949599201485766767.post-47432933916537425842010-02-24T22:14:52.199-05:002010-02-24T22:14:52.199-05:00sounds like you had a fun visit. my windshield is...sounds like you had a fun visit. my windshield is cracked too.. lol. oh almost forgot.. i am a storyteller now..:)glnrozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12922837344762102334noreply@blogger.com
