Bloggers' Party and Thank You!

Hi friends,

I am so exicted with this new freedom of being able to blog from home and not the internet cafe, that I am back blogging for the third time today!!

I was thinking about all the various people I have been in contact with through this blog. When I first started keeping my blog, I sent out the address to everyone in my hotmail, yikes, its hot, address book. Only one friend in Riyadh left comments for me consistently. One cousin of mine made his best effort to write in all the way from Australia. Others just kind of drifted in and out. I wanted so badly for some people to leave at least one comment, but they never did. Instead I found a whole group of other people, other bloggers.

So, this post is where I get to say to you all: THANK YOU. I am just thinking of how we should have a bloggers' party in Saudi (it has to be in Jeddah, so you Riyadh people have to fly over or somethig) I just think it would be awesome to meet one another. We could form the Saudi Blogger's Society or something (wishful thnking I know!) I was inspired by Ahmed's meeting with a friend who had been following his blog. I hope, one day it can work out that we all get to see one another.

Zeina, Ahmed, Puss in Boots, q8iblogger (you can fly in from Kuwait!), bougabouga and several others, thank you always for leaving a comment here and there. Even though it may seem like a comment to you, it means a lot to me, which is why I have to reply to your comments! I appreciate it deeply!

Hey Mansur,

This is a great idea. Let's see what others have to say about it, and hopefully we can make it happen.

Funny, all these people are in Riyadh and I dont know any of them. Hmmmm... maybe the party should take place here in Riyadh where most of the crowd is.
