I can't believe I've neglected to mention I met Dizzy-Girl at Miss Elva's visitation.
Actually, Key smoked her out in the parking lot as she was entering, recognized her, and facilitated the introductions. What a sweet girl. Especially after Rob was, well, Rob to her.
She was really excited to meet Key, and Eric, and Rob. And, bless her, she actually shook Velociman's hand, although I sensed the fact she would rather have gripped the paw of a road-kill deer, or a wet leprosy victim. So she gets extra shout-outs for bravery.
Her superlative hubby was reluctant to meet us, as he was sporting some repurcussions from the ultimately successful stomping of a perp, but it's all good. He seemed like a good dude.
Good on ya, DG. Sorry I didn't post this earlier.
Oh, I'd say she got a little more than she bargained for in the way of introductions! Gennie, I hope you didn't mind. It's always neat to meet someone who's been hanging out on the blogroll for over a year, yet somehow managed to remain faceless. ; )

Posted by: kelley at April 1, 2005 12:47 AMThanks for the shout-out man. It was really nice meeting you as well. LOL re: the handshake. I considered it an honor. You're all very nice and everything I expected from reading your blogs. And you're quite the handsome devil! Such a shame that you had to see me looking the way I was. Next time, I'll put some effort into it. :)
Oh Rob...how I could I not like him, even after the verbal lashings he's given me in the past. He speaks his mind and I can't fault him for that. And like I've said before, if we can't support each other, then what good are we? Differences aside, we're all bloggers, and good people, and we need to be there for one another when these things happen. And you know what? Rob's a good guy and I'm happy that I was able to meet him as well.
Thanks Key and Kelley. You both rawk as well.
One day, hopefully soon (after I've lost 1,000 or so pounds and aren't feeling so damn self-conscious!), I'd love to get together with the lot of you. We'll get drunk. We'll laugh. We'll be merry. It'll be great. Maybe I'll even convince the hubby to come along.
