On Saturday I finally met fellow blogger Imelda.

We've been reading each other's sites and chatting online for a while, and since she's at college in San Francisco, we thought we'd hook up for coffee whilst I was in town.

The biggest problem was finding my way to the rendezvous point, not far from SFSU. Due to the labyrinthine design of the California highway system, and the road signs just plain running out a couple of blocks from my highway exit, I managed to lose track of where I was a mile from the 280. I'm quite good at working out where I am, but in the end, I had to resort to using The Force to find where I should be.

No, seriously. I put the map down, and let my feelings guide me. It was eerie. Before I knew it, I'd found the arse-end of the mall in question. I made it to the predetermined rendezvous point just about on time, which if you know me, makes the whole Force idea all the more credible.

Imelda was just like I'd expected, very sweet, and a lots of fun to chat to. We spent the next few hours, sampling the delights of several s, and talking non-stop about San Francisco, California, Denver, website design, and broadcasting (she's studying it, and I'm about to start a career in it).

It was really nice to meet her, and if we're ever in the same town again, we'll be hooking up for more coffee and chats.
