qatarperegrineA number of times now, I've had the somewhat unnerving experience of realizing that someone I know in real life has started reading my blog.
And two or three times, I've even been introduced to someone, only to have them say, "I already know who you are; I read your blog."
But today was the first time a complete stranger actually walked up to me and said, "Excuse me... are you a blogger?"
That was kinda cool. :-) And nice to meet you, grocery-store-guy-whose-name-I-was-too-flustered-to-ask!

He was a regular poster on Challenging God, and I really liked a lot of his comments. I identified myself - "Wait! You're Jess's mom?!? Lasa is Jess's mom?!?"
It gets weirder. He was living in the VERY same room in a house I had lived in when I was a student at CMU.
