A few days ago, I was going up in the elevator at work and I heard a girl talking about her blog. What a shock! It felt so out of context. She was a lawyer or accountant from the company on the upper floors. I heard her tell a man that she was going to write about one of their colleagues in her next blog entry. I was very excited — instant camaraderie amongst bloggers. I didn’t say anything though, and stepped out on my floor.

Today, by some coincidence, that girl was in the same train carriage as me on the way home. I hovered nearby so that I could hear the conversation she was having with her companion. I wanted to know more about this fellow corporate blogger.

What a disappointment. I don’t think I’d like her — she’s opinionated, flippant and hyperbolises her way through normal conversation. Ah well.
