in which I tell you about my "date"

So last Friday I participated in something I have never done before! It included “meeting” a lovely fellow blogger over skype! It also included champagne! It was awesome! Notice all the exclamation points? That is how awesome it was!
But seriously after some back and forth tweeting and my exclamation of how awesome I thought her champagne Tuesday was (btw you do know that anytime you drink champagne not on a special day it automatically becomes champagne –insert day of the week here- and automatically ups the awesome factor of the day). Well, after mentioning how awesome I thought it was she suggested we have a skype champagne date- y’all I could not resist! But you know what else- lawdy I was NERVOUS with a capitol N-E-R-V-O-U-S! I mean I knew she was absolutely sweet from her blog and she well- who knows what she thought of me from my blog- but well it was still a nerve wracking thing! And I know I was probably totally awkward and said awkward things but oh well!

Overall, it turned out great! I got to meet her absolutely adorable son, who thought I was his Aunt at first and who then proceeded to say my name right the very first time his momma told him! He is one smart and adorable two year old!

I also meet her pretty kitty and quickly spied/hello-ed her hubby!

We spent about 45 minutes or so chatting about ourselves and generally getting to know each other all the while sipping champagne- me from Aubrey’s glitter filled Harvest mug and her from a cute glass! We’re classy!---oo oo fun fact: the day we champagne skyped was actually National Champagne Day- how prodigious!

 Basically, it was really awesome and I am so glad to have had the chance to meet Maegan from the blog Chesterrific and can’t wait for our next Champagne skype date!

 Have you ever skyped with a fellow blogger? How did your first time go?
