“Preparations for BlogHer ’10″ or “How Pathetic I Really Am”

*I’m on the MacBook, looking at some fave tweeters and bloggers going to BlogHer ’10*

Me: Oh My GOD I’M GOING TO A BLOGHER PARTY HOSTED BY THE BLOGGESS.

D: …

Me: She’s only like, frigging awesome and has like, 55,504 followers. AND SHE FOLLOWS ME.

D: Right.

Me: And she TALKS TO ME. Like, I tweet her, and not only does she see my tweet, but she responds. Not always of course, cos she’s following like, a MILLION people, but she RESPONDS. And not just on the normal tweet stream. Via DM, dude. I’ve totally had like, maybe 3 DMs. And I favourite them all and don’t delete them.

D: …

Me: She’s awesome. And I’m going to meet her.

D: Mmm.

Me: Oh my god. Amalah has like 27,826 followers. And she only follows 236 people.

D: No way.

Me: Yes way. And I’m one of them. ME dude.

D: Ok.

Me: I’m totally going to get my picture taken with them.

D: That’s great.

Me: These are the people who TOTALLY got me where I am today. Um, you know, in terms of blogging. Like, I started because of them, didn’t I? Remember? Remember how I read Amalah all the time? I’m going to get my picture taken with ALL of them.

D *face suddenly lighting up*: You know what you should do? You should get one of those seaside billboard things where you put your face in the hole and people take a picture. And you should get Amalah to come stick her face in the hole, and you should painted in the picture board stood next to her, and then you can have loads of different photos with her!

Me: That’s a fucking brilliant idea! Because then I could take the picture too!

D: Yeah!!! And then you could charge her!

Me: Yeah, that’s a stupid idea.
