Within the last few months, I've started to read Nicole's blog and enjoyed it. A few weeks ago, she posted about a pay it forward kind of thing, where people can pool their goals and others can crowd source and help and get help on their own. Excellent idea, no?
I gave my $.02 on a couple of items and figured, what the heck, I'll list one of my own. I'm doing some big, scary things, surely seeking help from people is better than rocking in the corner, gnawing on cookie dough while staring and mumbling at a train schedule.
So I wrote out my wish (basically, to make friends), posted it and then, because I figured no one would respond, I FORGOT ABOUT IT.
My new tag line: A nincompoop that shoots herself in the foot.
I was reading another of her posts today and a light bulb popped in my brain that hey, perhaps I should check. And lo!
Responses! From honest to goodness non serial killer people including one of my favorite bloggers!
Who needs a date when I have the Internet to make me feel all warm and fuzzy on Valentine's Day?
(Though I may need some of that cookie dough while I sit here and compose emails to the very nice responders explaining that I'm a well-meaning dolt.)
You are going to love DC...I miss it so much!
