The Mic is On: It's the Very First Time . . .

January 1, 2008 by Liz

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

… in 2008

They say the first time is unforgettable.
We might talk about:

  • that first blog post, first job,
  • the first time we drove a car, rode a horse, or tried out skates
  • first prizes
  • first big breaks
  • first collosal mistakes
  • maybe even the first time we tried flamenco dancing.

I wonder who’ll arrive first?

Number 1

Oh, and bring links about firsts to share!
