I did torment myself for awhile before I managed to publish my first post on the great blog called Technically Women.
You have to understand — when I was invited to join this group I was compelled to openly confess my love for each of the women that I already knew. There are some very fine thoughts trafficking on this blog and these are excellent people with which to be associated.
So when I was invited to join, of course, I panicked.
I have known and admired genetically engineered raconteur @cathybrooks since Prop 8 and I have enjoyed many Twitter threads and even commentary on this blog from Cathy.
My early days of Twitter are awash in song lyrics from @pistachio — and a couple of my posts honor her contributions to my use of technology and the causes that are dear to me.
It was @yojibee who — totally outside the inner-connected sphere of our worklives — reached out to me during a fear of flying bout or two — and located across the world as she is, she also provides excellent insomanic company.
And then there’s @marilynpratt. I was only recently lucky enough to meet Marilyn face-to-face. There are many things you could say about Marilyn, but there’s no point to words when you’re touched by a piece of her soul.
And now I get to be associated with the rest of the women I hadn’t known before except by reputation that are on this blog ?
So you can see how I panicked. But I stepped in with a post and I intend to continue reciprocating the honor as best I can. I already have a folder or two of additional posts I am incubating — Now — barring only the discovery of the time…
In the meantime — likewise, I’d be honored if you’d check it out over at Technically Women and grace us with your thoughts. Thank you!
