Twerd up, Pittsburgh

Tonight, I went to Piper’s Pub on East Carson’s street for a Pittsburgh Tweetup. I’ve previously been to a Pittsburgh Blogfest, but this was my first Tweetup! It was so much fun meeting with people I interact with daily on Twitter. At events like this, you might as well have a big sign on your forehead that says, “I’M A NERD!” Aka, it’s at these Tweetup’s that your real name goes out the door and your Twitter username walks right in. I am no longer, “Julie” but rather, “Wearing Mascara” and yes, that is mascara on my eye lashes. I am, indeed, wearing mascara, just in case you lose me in the crowd.

Anywho, here are some fun pictures from the night! Jenana stole my camera (we just met and five seconds later she literally snatched my camera out in front of me. I like her, she has balls). Enjoy, all you Twerds :-)

Julianne and I

Rachel (check our her graphic designs! Love them!)

Jenana and someone else I didn’t meet (who are you?)

Jenana and Andrea

Me and Techburgh, aka Andy

It was a fun night and I’m excited to do it again!

Oh and I have to note this. I would be a social media failure if I didn’t. For all you Pittsburghers out there, please do not EVER, and I mean EVER go to Lifetime Auto in Squirrel Hill. They suck and are thieves of your hard earned dollars. Trust me :-) If you want more info or a guy you can trust, email me.

Life is good.

I’m attempting to go to DC tomorrow to celebrate some of my favorite ladies birthdays!

I hope I can also meet up with Kristen from Puddles of Run for a run or lunch possibly! :-) I need to get in 5-6 miles this weekend depending on how I feel! I’m SO excited for my races! :-)

What are you looking forward to this weekend?

xo,

Julie

I am looking forward to sleep and TV, neither of which will probably happen.

That’s a sad little weekend right there.

I’m looking forward to a weekend of girl stuff. Hubby’s at a bachelor party until Monday night so I’m a single lady (which means I can watch whatever I want onTV)!

Piper’s Pub?! Fabulous – it’s like I was there in spirit, ha ha! Looks like you all had fun – I like the picture of the random, that’s pretty great. Sorry about the car drama – I hate dealing w. fixing autos! Mine just had some work done as well & it’s always such a bummer! Have fun in DC this weekend.

I think the girl in the third pic…the one you don’t know…may be @meetjenn?

Also, your friend’s wedding dress is beautiful!

And I’m glad you had fun at the tweetup!

What fun! I hope to meet up with more bloggers soon. I don’t tweet so I can’t go meet them. :(

Good to see you at the tweet-up, of course. :) And Akirah’s right, that’s @MeetJenn. Her birthday was the next day. Are you going to try to go to DC today?
