I’ve haven’t seen much of my next door neighbors since the day we moved in. I figure they scoped us out, determined we probably aren’t the “playin’-mahjong-’til-six-in-the-morn” type, and simply went on with their lives.
The few times I’ve seen them outside, I’ve stopped to say “hello”, but that only seems to hurry them along faster.
Feeling all too isolated, I turned to my computer, because… uh, well, you know… 
Like a total dork, I reached out to another blogger who seems so nice and approachable on her blog and other projects, and just so happens to live in Silicon Valley too.
I explained that I’m a recent transplant to the area, don’t know a soul, and am looking for a local bloggers groups, like the London Bloggers Meetup.
Perhaps even something as informal as the “Mommy Bloggers’ Nights Out” organized by some of my favorite Dallas-Fort Worth bloggers. I never got to attend since we MOVED just as they began having them… Grrr.
Anyway, know of any?
When she responded saying no she did not, but we should totally start our own group, I was so into it.
Well, I must have sounded a little too eager/desperate when I wrote back ten seconds later and said “YES!” When?!” because it’s been crickets chirping ever since…
Maybe she’s just been busy…
Or maybe I’m just a giant LOOOO-ser…

I wish I was there too. I recently got to meet two of my fav bloggers when they came to my city to visit family. It was great. I think a ‘Night Out’ sounds like huge fun.

I have said it before and I’ll say it again…I wish we lived close. We would totally hang out:) Can’t you get Husband to work on that? I know EA Games is in the burbs somewhere…I think?
I got crickets chirping here as well. That dept. head who wanted me to talk to his group for illustration opportunities…in the wind. What is up with that? Gah! I guess I’ll move on to the next art school:P Lucky we have so many in The Big City.

It’s been a while but I’m catching up with you. I was reading you back in the day of quietly shouting inside. lol – I’m updating my blog rolls and now that I have your new addy then I can visit more! Whoo Hoo. Like you my friends are inside my computer too.
Good luck with the blogging group. I wish we had one here too. I don’t know if anyone in my town blogs or not.
