I've been looking forward to the RA Blog Reunion since it was announced to see who would post and to read all the posts of Armitage Bloggers.
You see that's how I became involved in the Armitage Fandom - All the Blogs!
I used to be pretty active commenting on the Armitage Blogs at the beginning, at least for someone who is an introvert. Though contrary to popular opinion, being an introvert doesn't mean we don't like people or don't enjoy socializing in moderation. But like my fellow introvert Richard Armitage, we do need our alone time and have no problem keeping our own company.
But I can't claim to be a legacy RA blogger and I haven't moved on to anyone else but Richard Armitage (and Sean Bean) in my fandom posts. I haven't stopped blogging, though I sometimes take long pauses in between posts.
But I saw my friend and fellow RA fan Fanny mentioned me in her blog today. So here I am, with my RA Blog Reunion post.
Richard Armitage is still #1 for me.
I've been going through Guylty Pleasure's Armitage Challenge, so if you want to know how I feel about RA you can follow my Challenge 2020 posts at the link below.

And his interviews, have I mentioned that I really fell in love with Richard Armitage because of his wonderful interviews.
Not that I don't have an eye for others in addition to Richard and Sean. After all I do have the Other Men in My Life on Pinterest!
I just love the infinite variety of being a Richard Armitage fan. From North & South to Castlevania, from a wealth of amazing audiobooks to surprising Wolverine podcasts!
I do miss The Hobbit days and looking forward every Hobbit year to all the fan events around the world, and attending Hobbit fan events in New York with fellow Armitage fans. And seeing Richard in the flesh! 😊 Those were fantastic and fun years. I'll never forget them.
I was lucky to see Richard on stage in Love, Love, Love and hope that in that not too distant future, when theaters open again, that I'll see him on stage in New York again. Or maybe, just maybe, in Washington DC, my town. How about theater in DC Richard? We are also a theater town in the good times.
I also used to make Armitage fan videos, if you can believe it. Though I'm the Grandma Moses of videos. They are very primitive. I did stop doing so a while back, I don't know why. But I did enjoy it.
Below is a link if anyone wants to visit my old videos. Once in a while an Armitage fan finds one and posts one of them on Facebook and it always makes me smile.

I have some very dear and long time online friendships that I've made as a result of being in the Armitage fandom. I thank Richard Armitage for these friendships and the joy that following him has given me all these years, and continues to give me.
