Israeli Blogger Bash
There is excitement in Israeli blogger land, as plans are already under way for an English-speaking Israeli blogger bash, to be held some time in late August – early September.
If you are an English-speaking Israeli blogger who did not already know about this, click here and join the group. There is a poll to decide when and where the meet-up will take place.
I am personally excited about meeting people who share their thoughts with me over the net, and some of whom read what I have to say. It is weird to think that we are meeting for the first time. Will it feel like we already know each other? Will the bloggers be as I imagine from reading their blogs, or are their blogs representative of a more outgoing version of their true selves? Will they find me to be as obnoxious as they probably think I am from reading my blog? I promise to be on my best behaviour!
Maybe it is because I have been watching way too much reality tv lately, but it feels a bit like a reality tv show where a group of strangers are placed in a situation together. Perhaps it will be more like The Bachelor, where one man has to pick between numerous eligible admirers.
In any event, it should be a great experience. And since I also qualify as an Australian blogger, I also look forward to meeting up with the Perth/Aussie bloggers when I return to Australia to visit my folks (perhaps early next year).

I’ll be there with bells on! Actually, I won’t *really* be wearing bells… but I’ll wear something off-the-shoulder so you’ll recognize me.
Looking forward to finally meeting you (heck, I even have a few Perth stories I can share).
Right back at ya, David.
And I have somne Efrat stories I can share with you
ok, I may not be Israeli but I’m an honourary Israeli and I don’t think I’ll need bells for you to recognize me, I’ll be the Canadian with the Hebrew-English dictionary in hand.
And maybe I’ll put bells on since day has stolen my idea for what to wear. Heavens if we should wear the same thing! *wink*
I assure you that I am as terse, sarcastic, cynical and funny in person as I am on my blog. Modest too. :0
Dave, have you been watching Forever Eden? Forever Eden is so bad. But like Paradise Hotel, I simply cannot stop watching it.
Yes Harry, I have seen most of the episodes. But I have to admit that it isn’t as good as Paradise Hotel. Perhaps because there is less “coupling”, or perhaps because there is no “Dave”…I don’t know, but it just isn’t as good.
The Bachelor has been pretty good though!
