Collisions Happen

So, you are going to be able to tell that I'm a new blogger after reading this post. Yes, for the first time, Anon was a tad out of her comfort zone when the "Real World" collided with "Blog World". Yep, you veteran bloggers are shaking your heads at this point. My family was invited to attend a carnival tonight at a local church in town. Though my roots are in Ohio, I have extended family in this area. Every year, their church provides a FREE carnival to the community. Every year, we get a personal invitation and every year, we turn the invite down because of other circumstances. What do you know? This year, the calendar was clear and we finally were able to attend. These folks really put their hearts into this event. Everything was put together with great organization, wonderful volunteers and they were not kidding, the activities were free. With all the booths there, I could not pass up my favorite station......cotton candy. Have I mentioned the free factor? I cannot pass up free cotton candy. I love cotton candy and I don't get to indulge in that too much, so I could not resist. I went over to that booth, reached to take one of the cotton candy treats and I hear something to the effect of "Cotton candy is not for belly dancers." I looked up, she was making the cotton candy and I knew who she was. I was in shock and thinking to myself, 'I cannot believe Lakeview hires Nazarenes.' :) After getting over that little 411, I quickly hushed her and said something about that just being blog world stuff. I mean, after all, did she not see my little one and my great aunt standing near me? :) All of a sudden, paranoia settled in. These are the times that I forget anyone can read these posts which is one of the reasons I resisted starting a blog in the first place and why I hesistate to use my blog as an "update" of my life. Here I am running my mouth, thinking only people who know me read this stupid (referring to mine) blog.......not true. Now, I'm walking around wondering who will drown me with their super soaker when I turn the corner. (Read my last post and you'll understand.) Hey, my super soaker is bigger than your super soaker.

Here's another question: Why did she not let me know that she knew of my blog? After all, she's a fellow comrade, a music teacher, she could have at least let me know she's out there. Well, I'm going to find her. I have a link who is connected to Lakeview and I just bet it won't take me long. What do you do/how do you feel when your worlds collide? Inquiring minds want to know. Is it leading a double life or should the philosophy be "what happens in blog world, stays in blog world"? And is leading a double or shall I say creative life wrong? If that's the case, I'm going to show up in my bells and scarf at church on Sunday. Yeah, I'm going to live in freedom baby. If you don't like it, you don't have to look at it. Start the music now. Wait a minute, I'm playing on Sunday. Well then, I guess there's a first for everything......ever seen a bellipianist on the worship team? :)
