The magic of blogging {& the day I met Gussy}
Thursday, September 30, 2010Last weekend, I saw a tweet from Gussy/Maggie. She was in Chicago, so I suggested that we meet up. Thanks to the magic of our little online world, we were able to direct message our #s to each other on Twitter, and text to make some plans.
And today...I made it to Gussy's blog. Look at me. Or actually...look at us!
Is it just me, or does my hair look a bit like a helmet here? This was the photo that Gussy preferred & she assured me that it did not feel helmet{ish}. I'm going to trust her.
I have met and become pretty good friends with many bloggers over the past few years. Here is a list of the bloggers I've met.
- signature style
- peeptoe pumps and pearls
- curly in the city
- a lovely being
- at last
- bring the rain
- plush palate
- hope of my heart
- my little photographs

- live. love. laugh.
- osborn odds 'n ends
- our little china girl
- chi town savvy
- angry julie monday

Have you met any bloggers or considered arranging a local meet up in your area? Have you become good friends with anyone through blogging? If so, I'd love to hear about it!

I met her!!! At TCC! I also met Lindsey and The Pleated Poppy, Jamie from City Chic Country Mouse, Lisa Lenard from Lisa Lenard Designs, Meliss from two little tots, Allora Handmade, Jenna Lou and a few more. I need to be better at names.
ReplyDeleteADORABLE!!!! (Loving the J.Crew shirt BTW...sad that I know that right!)
ReplyDeleteI am sooo glad that we met!!! And still get to see each other!
oh... how FUN!!! nooooo sadly... though I have one friend in GA but we're both so busy that fb/ and blogging is just about how we communicate. I'd love to visit and meet her in real life. that is so cool- well guessing all those people are such cool bloggers and its no wonder that you click irl !
ReplyDeleteps. your hair rocks!
helmet hair, phelmet hair. pssshh. it's so cute :]
ReplyDeletei can't think right now, but i know i've met many bloggers ~ conferences are great for those things.
now, how many people have i met "on a whim" like we did? not many :]
Your hair looks great! I'm hoping to meet you and Taylor soon and that'd be my Meet a Blogger in Real Life Cherry, if you will! =)
ReplyDeleteThats soooo fun Danielle! I hope one day we meet and you get to show me around your city :))
ReplyDeleteAnd NO! Your hair does NOT look like a helmet! I simply LOVE it. I was actually just telling my friends today that I wanted to cut my hair (but NOT before Senior year is over--i hate that kind of attention)...but maybe right before I move to Chicago I'll do something crazzyy with my hair! But not THAT short!
That is a cute picture of the two of you! No, your hair doesn't look like a helmet! :) I have met online friends before, but not through blogging. I have talked on the phone to blogging friends. That is fun to put a voice with words !! :)

ReplyDeleteOh, how jealous am I?! I would have loved to have been able to pull up a chair at y'all's table!! :)
ReplyDeleteD - I love your hair. It does NOT look like a helmet and you've inspired me to go short with mine (again).
The both of you are awesome. Blogging is a wonderful outlet...and such a great way to meet new people either in person or online.
