so, yeah. i met heather (dooce) and jon (blurbomat) armstrong on thursday night. back when i read they were coming to town, i got a little excited; mel egged me on; i emailed darren and, well, the next thing we knew reservations were made and i was sitting across the table from them at monk mcqueens on false creek along with julie, jen, roland, jamie and colene.
i can't say enough great things about the evening. if you've ever read either of their sites you know they're smart & witty and that translates to real life as well. i was very interested to hear about mormon underwear from jon and some unblogged anecdotes from heather. there was great food, great drinks and amazing company. i don't think i've had a better night out in a very long while.
then, just to ice the cake, julie slept over at chez hessie and we got to spend a fantabulous afternoon together before she headed back to victoria friday evening.
it was a pretty crazy, overwhelming, exhausting but ultimately amazing 24 hours and i really didn't want any of it to end.
noooooooo! I'm SO jealous!!!!! waaaaaah
i am dying of jealousy :( i guess i could have emailed you to invite me along, but thems the breaks :( :( :(
SOOOOOOO jealous.
I was just coming over here to ask if you met them. Good for you! I'm so glad you didn't chicken out.
I don't read blurbomat, but Heather's one of my favorite bloggers. And one of the few that I'm certain is exactly the same in person. :o)
Eh, you should go watch the slideshow. Ahem.
I see two someones that I recognize...
