Yes, I recently met two IRL when they were in my area at a LQS. I couldn't go with them as I had to attend a 60th birthday party. It was so kind of them to be my escape plan!! *giggles*
I've met several virtually and am enjoying their company in cyberspace. A few of them are close enough to me geographically that I anticipate some GTGs, FARTs and dear knows what!! :)
(you know who you are ladies ... though I won't mention names!!! .... you can though, if you wish!)
