Lookie Who I Met!!

I have to say that every time my blog-life has intersected with my real life, I have been pleased.

As in "pleased to meetcha!" I have met some truly wonderful people over the past couple of years that I have been blogging.

But this time. Oh, this time I was better-than-pleased. I was giddy with excitement to meet Glenda on Tuesday.

Glenda started popping up in the comments section of my blog sometime in the past year. I clicked over to her place and loved the green color (my favorite!) and whimsy of her blog so I started following her. I loved reading about her life in Seattle.

Fast-forward a few months, and suddenly Glenda was moving to Chicago. I knew in my heart that we would meet someday, and Tuesday was my someday.

Glenda's husband had some meetings out here where I live, so she came along with him. He dropped her off at my house where we visited over coffee for a while, then we went to my favorite restaurant here in town where we talked non-stop for about two hours more.

The time just flew! Glenda and I actually have connections in a couple different spheres of our lives and we figured out that we had a few people in common. Such a small world! So Glenda and I met and ate and talked and talked and talked.

I'm sure it won't be the last of our Chicago get-togethers.

Thanks for a fun day, my "new" friend!

P.S. If you haven't "met" Glenda yet, pop over to her blog and say hello. You will find a warm welcome there!
