When bloggers meet-up
I do not know of anyone who started blogging with the expectation or objective of meeting other bloggers, but when it happens it is an amazing thing to observe. If I didn't know any better, I'd say that there is something Baptist in the heritage of most who showed up for a Nashville bloggers' night of free pizza...confirming the old adage, "If you feed them, they will come". Many thanks to Rex for paying the pizza bill and to Mr. Roboto and Brittany (sans Tootie) for getting the word out. Good conversation seemed to be the order of the evening and introductions were frequent. I now have a face to place with Ain't No Rodeo Queen, Salem's Lots, Big Orange Michael, The Monroe Doctrine and others...whose names have already slipped my mind ('sorry). Many of the other 30 or so I already knew and tried to get around to at least say hello. I understand that Sharon Cobb was not feeling well enough to attend....note to Sharon: be well and be there next time so we can hear your side of the family history *grin*.
Aunt B was...well, Aunt B! ...keeper of the coolest blog t-shirt on the planet and the most adept person present for generating substantive and off-the-wall conversation. For those who read her rants... she posseses neither horns, pitchfork, or claws (although I am not sure about the claws).
Busy Mom endured my interview well. I am intrigued/amazed/jealous of the amount of attention that a mom sharing (well wriitten) anecdotes about her family attracts each day. If you are not already a reader, add BusyMom to your blog diet. And no, I was not actually hitting on BusyMom...at my age, that would require a user's manual with large print instructions.
I am anticipating many pictures of smiling faces to appear across Nashville blogs later today...links or a snagged image may be added here later.
