On the day of my blog date, I arrived at the MET 20 minutes early because that is how I roll when I'm nervous. I realized immediately that the MET closes at 5:30. WTF MET! How the heck are we supposed to get freakin' cultured if you ain't open late. I immediately panicked because I was sure that Amber, once she realized the museum was closed, would think that I was a total creeper and that my blog was just an advanced plot to trick her into an unmarked van. However, Amber still met me, didn't mace me in the face, and agreed to get a bite to eat instead.
What a fun night! There is something so fascinating about sitting down with a perfect stranger and having them open up to you. This is of course much easier when it is a blog date and not a real date. Amber's life does not mirror mine at all. It is hard to find friends like this but it is really important. Also she is a very talented blogger, pod caster, and photographer. Hello inspiration!
Thanks so much for meeting me Amber and trusting that I wouldn't shove you into a van.
Song of the Day
Saturday was John Lennon's birthday so today's song is Imagine.
Anna, this post seriously cracked me up. I love how whenever you've met someone from the internet, you preface it with, "Well, I thought they were going to kidnap me, but they turned out nice!" Haha. I think the same way whenever I meet someone from the interwebs, so that's why it's so funny.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to see so many people coming together to help make each other's lists happen!
I know! Maybe some day I'll get over that. But that will probably be the day I get kidnapped ;)
