Last night Richard and I attended our first (are there more?) Dave Diego.
To be totally honest I am not completely sure of the details of the meet up. I did meet some really cool people tho. The reason we went was to meet The Jester of Jestertunes. The event was in The Gaslamp Quarter, which was a mad house due to this other little convention going on in the area… We actually met at Whiskey Girl. It was a blast, even though I was dead-to-the-world tired. But here’s the thing, Jester & crew travelled a long way so how could I not come out to say hi? So even in the middle of our “early” working weekend we were there! I am so glad too.. Jester (or Paul, if you like RL names) is awesome. I felt like I had known him forever… which in a way I think I have, as far as you can know someone through their blog.. Heh. Our local friend and Twitter celeb @gooster showed up fashionably late. I was actually scolded for not warning anyone of @gooster’s hawtness.
We had a few drinks, had some snacks, and conversated about blogs, blogging, blog drama, and large flashlights in unmentionable places. You’d have to know Jester to know that is totally normal.. (There were also a lot of pictures being taken. I am dreading the moment when those surface. There is no way I look good in that many pictures from multiple angles. Be warned that there are double chins and bad hairlines. I was tired!)
Anyhoo, I met a number of Tweets as well as The Jester’s adorable man… all of whom I have to now follow on Twitter. Later tho. I have to get to work. Oi.

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!!”
