06.13.07: When Two Worlds Collide

Tonight I had my first "Hey I saw you on YouTube" encounter...and of all places, sailing on the lake! Over the past week, I've also had run ins with two MySpace friends (who I never met before) and have been in the planning stages for meeting some of you folks in Chicago in August. Have you met any of your e-Friends in "real life?" If so, what was it like? How awkard was that first meeting?

The world is getting smaller every day. Pretty wild--you are now a star! Would you have ever thought that a year ago? Enjoy the new friendships.

[anakin1814]

LOL Define "star"! LOL Trust me, I'm enjoying and cherishing these new friendships. :)

I think I commented here yesterday...that is so wild that someone recognised you!! Celeb!! hehehe

My husband at first was kind of not understanding my e-friendships as being real, but he joined in on a skype chat with the England gang and gets it now.

yay!

[anakin1814]

Yay indeed!!! You're on Skype? As I am...we'll have to share some info sometime. I love the idea of talking to all of these fantasitc ppl from all over the world! Who needs TV?!

i was at the london meet yesterday some people it was awkward some not then again ill talk to anyone tc

[akfhome27]

possibly my fault?! Ha never, J/K..One thing I believed I said is theres a woman I talk to on line, we live like 5 mins from each other, Joke all the time about going out for a glass of wine. Yet never have after all this time. I think like you in the restaurant we are a bit awkward on actually meeting each other, you know, kinda like the " mystery " is part of the friendship. I dont know if that makes any sense or not. But that was the jits of it anyway.

Yikes! LOL I know I've had my comments not stick, but sometimes I know its my own error (closing the page before it's officially been posted.). But let's still blame YT and it can our little secret! ;)
