She’s Spasmically Perfect

There are four people I want to meet in my life. (alright, there are a few more but . . . )
I want to hug them and tell them just how much they mean to me.
And yes, they are all bloggers.
Friends.
Dear friends.
Annie.
Mum.
Evyl.
Spaz.
I received an email several weeks ago from Susanne.
I really hate calling her Spaz, especially since I met her.
She’s much too pretty to call “Spaz”, IMHO.
That said, Susanne emailed me to say that she and B were going to be in Boston and wondered if a visit might happen.
I was surprised to say the very least.
It was like I’d just hit the lottery in a very unexpected way.
I told her ‘yes’ we have to meet.
It seemed almost predestined, to be honest.
I first “met” Susanne years ago after a comment that she left on my blog.
She said it was “disturbingly beautiful”.
I just had to follow it up.
This ultimately lead to our finally meeting up, blogwise.
Her way with comments and her personal emails have inspired me to keep on writing and to believe in myself.
She’s actually made me continue writing much like my wife (who does so every single damn day).
Susanne and my wife share a striking similarity in appearance too.
Yeah, strange.
I’m a total sucker for really pretty blondes.
Our journey has been one of many splendid things, the culmination being a final meeting and a sharing of food and drink.
As Susanne said, it can never be the same after actually meeting a virtual friend.
I say it can be better.
As it currently is.
It was only for a short time that we met but I thank the good Lord that I can still “hear” her voice, feel her spirit, see her smile.
I will regret forever that our time together was all too short.
I need to start saving some money as well.
Canada is one fairly inexpensive roadtrip away.
And it’s one I will undoubtedly look forward to.
Sorry, but Mr. Smith won’t be coming along on this one, maybe in spirit . . .
Until then, Susanne . . .
be safe and be well
And take care of Chaaahlie (and B)

ps. I’ve hugged one.
One down, three to go.
And Evyl? I’m hugging you dude. And no, I’m definitely not gay.

Hey – who knew all these attractive people were hiding behind the blogs? Seriously, there are no uglies in that pic. Nice to meet you!

What a great pic! Lovin’ that shirt ~m…we’re not losing you in a snow storm with that on….
I love seeing posts like this….love it! Less than 12 mths has become my latest mantra.

Thanks for the picture! And if I’m ever close to Boston, I’m hunting you (and Smith) down, whether you like it or not.
August 24th, 2008 at 9:26 am
Come and get your hug dude.
August 24th, 2008 at 9:27 pm
Great energy here… you indeed are blessed… she certainly is Spaz… great gal…

Nice try, Lasagna Boy. I’ll be hiding in the trunk. You’re not getting rid of me that easily.
Besides, we can make a travelogue out of it. We can call it “On the Road with T-Bone and Sweet Meat”.

Thus spake Teeni:
You’re either blind or too kind. The dude in the blue hat definitely needs to lose a few.
The phrase “rose between two thorns” could have been coined just for this picture.

Thank you for the wonderful post, I’ve been spoiled between Smith and you.
Anyway, Chaaahlie is looking rather sad these days, missing the roads, the sunshine and the wind, not to mention that dear hubby is hopefully going to give him a bath as he’s loaded with road dust. The one thing he doesn’t miss is emergency breaking in Boston since if there is one thing Bostonian pedestrians are completely indifferent to, it’s a red light.
Hugs,
Spaz (please don’t drop that name entirely)

Can I be in the middle of that hug with you and Evyl? Sorry I had to ask…tee-hee.
But I just read the post that A-Mum did on the same thing…I’m all jealous ’bout you kids meeting. I want to get in on the action.
Seriously, folks. You guys are like heros to me, I don’t want to meet Brad Pitt or whom ever is on the cover of People this week…it’s my blog friends for me.
