Add a frozen Margarita to that picture and take away the cars, and you have the epitome of the Birmingham Blogger Meet Up last Thursday.
"what's your twitter?"
"ok, wait, what's your blog again?"
"tell me your twitter so I can follow you."
Meegan, Nadine and I had planned to go up to Chuy's a little early and grab a drink, but we soon figured out that the other Birmingham Blogger ladies had the same idea. So we started mingling and chatting and learning all about one another.
This was my first time to ever attend a networking type gathering and I have to say, I really enjoyed getting to know the ladies! I will admit though, it was strange having people recognize me that I didn't recognize. I'm totally ashamed of this fact! I wasn't sure who some of the ladies were in regards to the blogs I followed, so I was really anxious to find out. I'm so glad I got to know them! We mingled and chatted for a couple of hours and it was great to know that other people in Birmingham are trying to do the same thing I'm trying to do, but in the same hand we are all so different. It was a personal success for me, and I think I even gained a new Zumba buddy out of it! (I'm looking at you, Molly...)
So for the record, if you aren't following these ladies, you should!
You definitely don't have to live in Birmingham (or even Alabama) to enjoy these ladies!
