Today we’re off to the big smoke. The kids are going to hang out with some friends while I attend my first ever blogger-meet-up do in Brisbane. A high tea at that, woohoo fancy!
Excitement aside, I’m actually a little bit nervous. Although I really do write as I am, and what you see (aherm, read) is what you get, there is a certain comfort that comes from being behind a computer screen. Like the fact that as I’m typing this, I’m still in my jamies and that’s certainly not the attire one should wear to a high tea with other bloggers, is it?
There is always so much to say through a keyboard, fingers take over and it’s hard to keep up with the ideas and sentences swimming through my head and yet I am starting to panic about this afternoon and the possibility of being lost for words or worse still, saying something really, really, really dumb. It’s a bit like going on a first date!
The ladies that have formed Blog Power Events are awesomely talented bloggers and I’m so pleased that there’s now a local crew for networking and sharing ideas about this form of media. There’s so much to learn and I’m ready to soak it up and couldn’t think of a better way than by connecting with others over a cup of tea and a scone. Well, I guess I’d better get out of these pajamas into something less frightening! I’ll look forward to editing this post with an update
How do you fare at these types of events? Do you get a little excited or shitscared?
