There was a lot of talk about people I don't know, but the stories were very entertaining. We didn't play bunco, but I don't know how anyway. I didn't contribute too much to the conversation, but I didn't know the people we were talking about!
Why I think the bloggers from last night cool:
- No one thought twice about my being there. They didn't think it was strange that a stranger joined the mix-they just treated me like one of their own.
- Kat makes yummy food.
- There was a lot of swearing. I felt like an adult.
- The word trifecta was used twice...by two different people
- Other adults have messy homes and are poor (not Kat! this was just gathered from conversation, not demonstration)
- Everyone had different opinions and shared them without hitting each other.
- Everyone was themselves (at least seemed to be)
- I laughed a lot. A lot a lot.
- I had an irrational fear that everyone would be psychotic and judgemental but the conversations of the evening proved contrary
- In theory, they like to play bunco...I like games, so in theory, I like bunco.
I had such a good time. I'm now putting faces and names with blogs, which is also fun. I would like to join them again. Can I? Can I?

I'm poor in some ways, rich in others. ;-p We've been very blessed by our home, which we've often had to struggle to keep--especially since my husband was one of those employees whose job evaporated after 9/11.
We were ALL ourselves, which is the best thing about the Blogger gatherings. We're all too shy by nature to worry about putting on a front.
And of course you can come again. You're part of the gang. That's just how it is. We were delighted to have you join up.
And thanks for the compliment about the food. Although in retrospect that lasagne needed more garlic.
Mari, I'm glad you were there. Hopefully we can do another gathering like this soon!
Hahaha, I thought you were there with B! That's brave as hell, I don't think I would be that brave, and I am one braver mofo! ;)
Ack braver=brave, ay yi yi!
Hey, yeah, it's been like a week and I'm just now getting over here to read you. You are really brave, I wouldn't have done that! I was so nervous going to my first blogger meet-up this past Spring but it didn't take long for me to feel like a part of the group.
Hope to see you again sometime!
