I've been thinking for a while now if I should step out from behind the blog in order to increase my networkiness (new word for you, Mr Maquarie, you're welcome) at AusBlogCon.
I will be going up to the Bloggers who I haven't met but recognize from their photos and saying soMething like "Excuse me, are you Liz from Mumstrosity?" Actually, the starstruck groupie inside me will ensure it comes out more like "OMG OMG OMG! Are you LIZ!? From MumstrositY!? OMG OMG OMG I totally love you!" And if it's not I will go and hide under a table.
But without a photo on here, I am uNrecognizable. There will be no "Are you Glowless?" ...and I think I'm OK with thAt.
I feel safe here, behind My bloggy curtain. I feEl in control.
My protective shIeld is about to be shattered, so instead of plunging in to the deep end next Saturday, I'll take some baby stepS... I'll give you a sneak peek... a liTtle teaser...
The last time I was in Sydney, this is what happened; GLOWZILLA.

Consider yourself waRned, Sydney!
On a side note, I feel completely vulnerAble right now. Bare. Naked. ExposEd. And it's only half a photo. What the hell am I gonna do at AusBlogCon?

Meet Glowless at the Aussie Bloggers Conference thanks to
Ooooh Ms Glowless yoU are a sneaky, sneaky, cleveR lady!! And I hAve you figured out!!! (I can also imagine you giggling While you typEd that post, with your heart pounding at a million miles a second!!)
ReplyDeleteActually rather proud of mySelf that my brain seems tO be firing on at least some of it's cylinders tonight!!
Looking forward to the coMplete unveiling, and to meEting you at AusBlogCon - because I, for one, trust the Universe and feel that all will be OK xxx
Dare I say it...you appear to be in full possession of your glow?
ReplyDelete(Oh hello disqus, nice to see you again)
ReplyDeleteGlowzilla! *Love it*
Hooray! You're still coming!
I hope you realise, if you actually spoke to me like that I would probably faint from anxiety hahaha
Let me think here. The Sponsor t-shirt may be a dead giveaway (for those who have been paying attention!) as to your true identity. So with my (tiny) marketing cap on...if we go on the premise that ‘sex sells’ then maybe we could quickly hire a male model to strut around the conference wearing the shirt, flexing his biceps and generally giving everyone a good look...only the back of the shirts does say something about being a Mummy...
ReplyDeleteYour are so cute! Love this, but not the first part about your dad & as I have not been on twitter today I'm clueless as to what's happened. Are you ok??
ReplyDeleteit takes courage to step out from anonymity. i hope all the mums at the blog con have a great time, and all talk about the mysterious Torkona as well :-)
ReplyDeleteI've done worse.
ReplyDeleteif that helps?
You're on to something here FEM... I don't think anyone would be looking at the shirt long enough to realize it said Mummy on the back... they'd be looking slightly lower I'm sure ;)
ReplyDeleteStrangely, Glen, it does.
ReplyDeleteWhy, thank you Miss Fiona ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's an old photo... hehehe. Although I don't think I look very different now.
ReplyDeleteOK I promise to remove one OMG to stop you fainting.
ReplyDeleteYep, hoping it all work out. My Dad's heart has chosen a really inconvenient time to give up.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure you'll be talked about, Tork. I was really close to saying Torked about, you know, for the cheap laugh.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you have decided to go. I can't imagine you being all nervous, and lost for words!
ReplyDeleteOooh, love the semi unveiling of Ms Glow! Everyone will adore you at Aus Blog Con - I for one cant wait to meet you!
ReplyDeleteThis is the start of big things for you! Anyone prepared to go up and say hi and 'out' themselves is awesome in my books. I'm still grappling with the flashes I'm getting, of me hiding under a table and hoping nobody notices my sizeable bottom poking out.
ReplyDeleteNow, I wish I was there to meet the whole person. I also just want to thank you for adding even more time to the time I am spending reading blogs when I am not supposed to be reading blogs--very clever and you too, Fiona!
ReplyDeleteHang on ... I'm a bit slow ... I need a pen and some paper ...
ReplyDeletevery clever...i feel like i am in a nancy drew novel!
ReplyDeleteagain, a shame we wont get to meet everyone but hope you have an amazing time
Hope your dad is okay too
Gill xo
Soo wish I was going to be meeting you!
ReplyDeleteFor comparing this to a Nancy Drew novel, Gill, you have my undying love :)
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteHehe I totally loved Fiona's comment too :)
ReplyDeleteI reserve the right to turn around on the way to the airport!
ReplyDeleteI'll bring my cardboard skyline so you recognize me, Donna!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I had much choice! Be careful which table you dive under, I might already be there... in which case, bring some wine for us to share, OK?
ReplyDeleteBummed I don't get to see you, Becky :(
