« Last gentse Feesten for me... | Main | BBQ in the garden »

When other people read your blog

One night on the Gentse Feesten, I saw this boys from highschool. This is what the Gentse feesten is about for us, seeing those old comrades back again.
They were pretty drunk already, and one of them told me they had a nickname for me: Ine Subsidie (which means something like 'Ine ...' I had to laugh about that, but the most remarkable thing was that these guys, whom I didn't see for 2 years or more, knew all about this blog, and about what I am busy with.
Heck, I don't know what most of them are doing... But they know about me. Flattering.
The same thing happened some days later, when I saw this guy from photography. We graduated together. I didn't see him for 3 years. He could mention what I was busy with, while I didn't even know he was still photographing...
I don't know what this has to mean.
Because, truly, I am not busy with these things. I am just trying to make fun, and this blog was ment to be for friends and family to follow the stories.
Seems again that more people are following the story, more than I ever imagined...
It is funny to mention Tamar and Sigal or Yasser to my friends, and they immedialty know what I am talking about. They have an image of these people.
(Sometimes I wonder if this is fair, to tell the story and to involve others in this story. But then again why not tell such a nice story?)
