You know that nervousness you get when you go on a first date?
Well that's what I was feeling last night when I went to Cheesecake Factory to meet up with a bunch of Columbus Bloggers. I was beyond excited all day at work yesterday, but it was definitely paired with anxiousness and nervousness at the same time.
I feel as if I knew everyone who was coming [thanks to their wonderful blogs that I follow], and I can pretty much carry on a conversation with a wall if i needed to... but to me there is still a little uneasy feeling when meeting someone for the first time [first impressions are everything!]
We all started meeting 1 by 1 at Cheesecake Factory - and all of my nervousness and anxiety was quickly swept away. It was if I was reconnecting with old friends. Our introductions to one another was much more different than a typical introduction they went something similar to this- "Hi, I'm Lindsey from Lovin' My Life" [and yes I felt as if we were all in a counseling session for AA or something!]. But once we got passed our name and our blog title - it was fun getting see the personalities of the girls that I have grown to adore over the past 12 months.
We were finally seated in the restaurant after waiting for a table large enough to fit all 10 of us and we began mingling again.
Holly, Steph, Brittany, Jenny, moi, Shannon, Lindsay, Molly and Emily
It was SO nice to finally have conversations about blogging with other girls who understood the blogging community. Some days I feel as if I'm on my own in my own little "cyber world" that not a lot of other people "get". We all understood what it was like to have an online outlet, and why we blog, and it was awesome to actually get to talk to someone about their blog/their design/[and maybe some of your blogs too! :)]/answering questions about how to do things on blogger/what a - without getting the crazy stares, or asking why we blog!
Before we all left, Steph was so cute, she gave us all little ornaments [she is beyond sweet and SO thoughtful!] I have already hung it on my tree. Every time I see it I will think of Steph and our wonderful dinner at Cheesecake!
I left last night wondering when our next blogging meet up would be - and I asked Holly if today would be too soon. I absolutely LOVED it!
Thanks so much girls for coming last night! I can't wait for the next one - and hopefully we will get a few others to join us next time as well!
