Bloggers - what are we on about then?

Kel has okayed it, so here are some pictures of our meeting up yesterday. Here are Kel, and Nicki, and me.







So, met up with a real, live Arhus blogger tonight, and it was lovely. But I cannot get used to this funny sensation, of driving to what is, in effect, a date with someone of whom you know some rather personal sides but who is someone you don't actually know at all.

And then the other weird thing is that there is this big difference between the person you know from their writing - who is the person as they see themselves - and the person you actually meet coming from outside, who may be quite different. Talk about subjective/objective and multiple identities! It’s enough to get you reaching for your Wittgenstein.

I've never seen so clearly that how we see ourselves is not how others see us. And do we write for ourselves, or for the hypothetical Reader? Or just to be friends, perhaps.

There you are, that’s enough philosophizing for tonight. Tomorrow I am supposed to get up for a huge bike ride with my eldest daughter. I wanted to explore north-western Djursland, but she is put off by the weather forecast and wants to go boring old south where the rain isn’t.
