"Hey, are you Monkeyspit?"



"Umm, yeah..that's just a psuedonym, Jon actually."

"Jon. Monkeyspit. Cool. So, cool. Wow. You're larger than I thought."

"Ummm...thanks? I try to exercise but I always end up in front of the computer."

"No. No. Not fat. I mean, I just expected someone skinny and dorky looking you know, from reading your posts. They're like Trekkie, you know?"

"Oh yeah. Well I thought you were a chick."

"A chick?"

"Yeah. No. Seriously, I mean I shouldn't of assumed, but your writing is so ahh...prosey. Plus, your profile picture."

"Oh, you mean the blonde? Yeah, she's hot. I always have guys trying to pick me up."

"Anyway, umm...what should we do?"

"This is so cool. I mean really this is cool that we are meeting like this."

"Yeah. Cool."

"Cool. I mean like getting out and actually like meeting. I mean we could organize a whole like blogger club where we drink beer and like talk about our blogs. We could have like all get together and we could like form our own political party and have someone crazy...like Martha Stewart. Yeah Martha Stewart. She could be our leader. You know cause we're home bodies"

This is actually one of my secret fears: meeting up with a bunch of bloggers and just sitting around awkwardly like some junior high dance. I always think that none of us will have anything to say once we're away from the keyboard.

It might be worse if someone tried to talk to me about what I had written. Most times, I can barely remember myself.
