Well Socialized

Bear in mind we don't live in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, or even a remotely proximate area code.

My son — who's five — and I happened to sit down next to John Remy the other day at the yogurt shop. John (who writes a very thoughtful blog) was on his laptop, on Twitter (@johnremy), which my son apparently/instantly recognized. His opening conversational salvo? "Do you know my mom on Facebook?"



It's possible we should get out more.

John told me about your interaction and how impressed he was by your son's comments. :)

John and I tend to keep our internet life sort of 'under wraps' from our IRL interactions--perhaps because it seems rather dorky to have such a deep cyber-life. But I think that's a'changing. It's so more socially acceptable to be a blogger than it was 5 years ago...

The whole thing tickled me no end. Nice hearing from you!

Kudos to your son for breaking me out of my shell. Hearing your twitter nom helped, too. I'm glad that you both got out at least this once. :)
