Earlier this month, I headed to San Diego with my carpool partner, Ciaran. We were going to a Girl’s Night Out and/or Tweet-Up in Solana Beach at the Pacific Coast Grill. I had never met any of the women that we are meeting up with, but I’ve chatted with them online. We sat on the 5 Freeway, for quite a while, but we eventually made it there.
I’m usually pretty shy at first. Seriously, I am. I’m always hesitant to talk to people, but I warm up. I had some good food in me, and then got to gabbing with the girls. We talked about our blogs, Twitter, our children, and life. I found things I had in common with the other women, besides being Angry.
The best part of my night? You want to know? I won an OgieKanogie coat from @rockonmommies. I had some recent “coat issues” just the day before. It was definitely a karma coat for me, perfect timing. After a long and fun night, we headed home towards the “Orange Curtain”. I can’t wait till the next event!

P.S. Since this event, I’ve already chatted with several of these women, more in-depth via blog comments and Twitter. How awesome is that. Oh, and a huge thanks to @SugarJones for organizing this event.
