I think I was. Actually, this time I *was* there and remember every detail.
Sadly it’s to close to my bedtime. Actually PAST my bedtime. But I have big news. Big bloggy news. I met 2 internet celebs tonight. At least in my eyes they are celebs… I am so thrilled to have FINALLY met THE Y of Joy Unexpected and THE Kathy of Pink Martinis (and Moxie Design Studios) OMG. OMG. OMG. Oh Em Gee! I love these women already!
Srsly.
What an amazing time and what amazing ladies. I am proud to add them to the list of great people I have met online. I also got to meet some San Diego locals that have been under my nose but have eluded me all this time (@lolagoetz, Rhiannon, Zack, and more) Of course Joelle and Mike were there as well… I am quite sure there are photos to follow eventually, as well as my sordid details, but I do have to wake up and be peppy for work in 5 hours (yes that does mean 4 AM) so next time… But I had to put it out there that I had an AMAZING time.
Weekend recap! I had a blast every day… Listen as I attempt to recount the fun. Meeting with some local Twitterers included:
@gooster
@tenthmuse
@mikeynerd
@slickdome (not quite local)
@richardallen
@wesstone
@danielphillip (me!)
A few photos on Flickr, as well as here on the blog. Cause I blogged the whole thing too. Heh. Friend me, follow me…
UPDATE: It’ll be 11 years for me and Richard. Not 12. Feels like 12 tho.
Urban Mo’s was a blast last night. This photo was one of only three that I took, but it has Trixie and I love her. I always end up wishing I brought the actual camera! But then who wants to be that guy chasing people with a camera all night when you’ve only just met? Right? So a few iPhone photos are all I got.
So anyhoo, @gooster, @wesstone, @slickdome, @richardallen, @jeffred, @tenthmuse, @mikeynerd, and me @danielphillip were in attendance. And Mo’s was packed. Packed, I tell you! I was poked, prodded, and groped in places not normally groped.. Hellooo! The heat was pretty intense too. All that aside I think a crowd is a good venue to meet new people tho, in case you don’t hit it off and you want to slip away… It could happen! What a great time tho! We all seemed to play nicely together, although it did get a bit wild towards the end. I danced I twirled and posed like a freak to Miley IN PUBLIC! OMG. LOL. And one of my “Apple martinis” was basically a glass of vodka. Cuh-ra-zy! Nothing like booze to make meeting new people less stressful… Kidding! Kinda.
Most importantly I think we made a few new friends, and that was the whole point, right?
Okay, so just in from the big night out at Mo’s. Totally a blast. My Twitter peeps rock!
I can safely say this because I have met 1/16th of them in person. Okay, maybe not that many… But still, between tonight and the #sdtweetups I have been to I can say that Twitter is my friend yo. More, plus a photo or two tomorrow. Must sleep now.
As a wise woman once said, “Tweet me, twitter me, add me, friend me, follow me, stalk me, love me! Twitter!!”
So I was on Twitter last night. Unusual, I know. Heh. Anyway Joelle tweeted about going to Lamplighter. I called down to Richard asking if he wanted to go. (I had earlier made a stink about wanting to skip going out to dinner, so I am sure he thought I was nuts) The next thing I knew we were changing and out the door! We hadn’t seen Joelle in a while, so of course we weren’t going to miss it. Plus, girl can sing so it’s fun to watch her in a karaoke bar. Actually, it’s fun to watch others watch her in a karaoke bar. Heh. Anyway, she sung, we gabbed, we laughed… a lot. The cocktails were as strong as ever. We all looked amazing. It was a great time!
Maybe one of these days I’ll be brave enough to get up and sing.
