March 11, 2006 at 8:06PM Feck, this is feeling uncomfortable!
First Irish Blogging Awards mini panic attack. ![[smile]](/images/smilies/smile.gif){kind=small}
Lovely. At the Blog Awards and’ve got old social phobias I thought I was pretty much over resurfacing.
Here’s the thing: I know only one person here personally, and that’s Tom. I haven’t seen him since the techie talk earlier, and never got to say hello. He hasn’t resurfaced since he went off to do that interview I’m a bundle of nerves. I’m pretty introverted--actually, that’s something of an understatement--and one of the reasons I started blogging was to release some of the social tension I feel. Argh. Typing all this isn’t doing a good job.
There’s nobody I already know personally here within eyeshot, and I’m surrounded by strangers. It’s so bloody hard to go and talk to somebody, and the few people I know from talking to them online are all busy doing stuff, are already surrounded by swathes of people, or missing!
Humm...
Update: Bizarre! A minute after I posted this, Roger from Irish Blogs came up to talk about the pinger, then Dermod, and then David from TCAL. Coincidence or not, thanks guys! You all made my night!
