Email from a stranger about dinner plans then 1 immediately following apologizing for sending to wrong email address. Too bad, sounded fun.
Write back and tell him he owes you a dinner - RAPatton from iPhone
Yeah, what RAP said. - Andrew C
if it was a dinner out I might be tempted, but it was plans to cook chicken then have milano cookies and sorbet for dessert. I can do that at home. - Annie Boccio

Feel bad that I've been neglecting Friendfeed. So... 'sup?
OH SO NOW YOU COME CRAWLING BACK, DO YOU? - Blackeyed P
Who *is* this? *flips through contacts* OH! Hiya, Annie! - Admiral Anika
hey there ............ - VAL D. Zone
hey!- all the kool kids and their rapper names are here :). Hi! - Annie Boccio
I've been totally neglecting friendfreed, so I awoke with a start in the middle of the night and jumped back on with a post about twalkin, how's it going with your podcast and how's Sarah Vela? - paul terry walhus
Snowing outside this window at the moment. Sticking to the roofs but not to the grass or the roads yet. - Richard A. from fftogo

I am such a bad shopper. always go to the same places online and off.
Me too. If it's a chain, then you'll see me at Best Buy, Crate & Barrel and The Gap. - Admiral Anika
I'm worse than that- Target and Kohls for everything. I think I'll head to Crate & Barrel this weekend to shake things up :) - Annie Boccio
Target is *always* the first place I hit. I've only been to Kohl's once and it gave me a headache. But the ones I listed often have really good prices, even better than Target at times. And of course, if you want to go for medium-quality, C&B and The Gap are it. Oooh. Then there's B&N, though I tend to buy my book gifts from Powell's or Alibris. - Admiral Anika
Annie Boccio
um, just realized my blog is spamming this room. Sorry about that (if anyone is reading it!)
deleted the wayward posts. It was only supposed to get posts specifically about social media. - Annie Boccio

Hey BOYZ! What FUN! - Holly Rae
Yay! - Annie Boccio
Blackeyed P
So, I got a pumpkin latte with whipped cream and cinnamon, because it's my birthday and stuff.
I think I'll go get something tasty and caffeinated because it's your birthday and stuff, too. - Annie Boccio
atta girl. - Blackeyed P
I celebrated your birthday with fresh chicken tamales. - Admiral Anika
Happy Birthday! - Spidra Webster

If you post things like "EPIC FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!" to my kid's video on YouTube I'm not gonna approve your comment. Deal.
youtube has comment moderation now? - Mike Chelen
I always disable comments on videos now - Rodfather
This thread is EPIC FAIL!!!!! on my free speech! ;) - Alex Scoble
one good way to moderate discussion is by posting on friendfeed. odd remarks don't bother me too much though - Mike Chelen
Alex: you are free to speek whatever you like, on *your* internets - Mike Chelen
Youtube has always had moderation, you just have to turn it on. On a vid with nearly 13,000 views I've only had to block a few comments :). I've let 29 thru. - Annie Boccio
Blackeyed P
I feel like Joan Rivers today. "Can we talk?" Because I want to SERIOUSLY VENT about someone. Holding onto my inner restraint for dear life.
What did I do this time? - Annie Boccio
oh annie banannie, i could never be mad at you. - Blackeyed P
Let that ish out, sugar. - Derrick
<3 :) I know the feeling, I've had a vent or two of my own bottled up lately. - Annie Boccio
weird. After this share, I heard a reference to "Can we talk" on NPR's All Things Considered. - Blackeyed P
Annie Boccio
No more yes. It's either HELL YEAH! or no. | Derek Sivers - http://sivers.org/hellyeah
Excellent advice. I try to do this and it ALWAYS works out. - Annie Boccio from Bookmarklet

I'm heading in to @RSHotel to meet @jjprojects tmrw at 6pm! NJians (who I know!) who want a ride- be at casa banannie by 4:30. dm for deets.
Have a great time! WIsh I was going with you! BTW the cookies @RSHotel are good. They have Macaroons. - sukhjit
Had hoped to make it in, but got the first day of school wrong. It's tomorrow. - Sarah
mmm, macaroons! Sarah I thought CT was annoying like NJ and started after Labor day. Sorry you can't be there! I'm kinda shocked that I can, actually. - Annie Boccio
Blackeyed P
first day of kinder... *sniff*

they're hello kitty obsessed. backpacks and lunchboxes, both of them. - Blackeyed P
my little one has a new Hello Kitty Backpack for 1st grade. It's silky. - Sarah
I love the pumpkin top! Why wait for Halloween? That girl knows what she wants :). - Annie Boccio
Annie, there is no telling these girls what to wear. ;) Sarah - when is first day of school for your kiddos? - Blackeyed P
my kiddos start on thurs. hubby starts next monday. - Sarah
Annie Boccio
Just arrived from FB where I was liking a bunch of stuff, now kinda wish Twitter let me like stuff. Well, not really. Off to friendfeed!
Well, but, Friendfeed lets you Un-like stuff too, which I always thought was cool! - Tink *~*~*
Don't you have to like things first to unlike them? - Annie Boccio
True, dat. - Tink *~*~*

Envato 3rd Birthday Bash, Day 3 – Grab the Tuts+ Birthday Bundle! - Psdtuts+ (via feedly) - http://psd.tutsplus.com/article...
Grab these fast- if I've got my timing right they'll only be available for a couple more hours. Now I just need time to play. - Annie Boccio

@ChazFrench I always used the handicapped stall with my kids, unless of course there was someone in a chair waiting...
I also did that. But truth of the matter was that one of my kids was actually handicapped, so I had a good reason. - Otir
Normal stalls are just too small for all the gymnastics required when helping little kids use the potty. And when I had one in a stroller? You better believe I used the big stalls! - Annie Boccio
I think that the regulations in public places make it marked "handicapped" but it is meant also for pregnant women and persons with infants and young children. It should be clearly posted though. Well maybe pregnant women wouldn't like to be labelled "handicapped"!! :-) - Otir

Going to work until you're finished? I should hope so, Governor. http://twitter.com/Schwarz...

Well, Palin isn't gonna work till she finishes so you never know. - Annie Boccio
+++Annie. And then there's that. - Admiral Anika
"until we finish"? No shit, considering you guys are already late by a couple of weeks! - Andrew C
He has a habit of talking tough when it's too late. - Admiral Anika
The twitterator! - Kevin J Hatton
i'm so over this back and forth bullcrap up in Sackoftomoatoes. Do your fucking jobs and get this shit done already! Or I swear to God, you are ALL fucked come next election cycle!!!!!! - Morgan Haley
Steady now @Morgan - Kevin J Hatton
What bold and decisive leadership! - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
it's been 2 weeks already. If I was that late, i would lose my job immediately. But these clowns get to keep their posh jobs at least until the next election cycle. Time to really get together and find a middle ground! Or else pull a Palin and get the F out of office! - Morgan Haley
btw: i'm a long time registered democrat that voted for mr.S for govenor. now i regret that vote and many of the local district choices i made. not that things would be very different with different folks in power, but i want them to know that they have all lost my vote. every one of them. and i'm the dude that does vote every time it comes around. but hey, i'm only one vote right.....yeah....sure.... - Morgan Haley

In the end riding my bike (for the first time in probably a decade) to the ballfields was a good idea- but wow, I need to get in shape!
Totally worth it. I went from not riding for years to being able to ride a hilly 75 mile route through the mountains. - Wirehead
I have friends who ride hilly roads regularly, and long distance rides a few times each year. I don't really aspire to that, but I would like to ride a few miles and not get winded! And you never know... - Annie Boccio
Well, pick a distance.... 5 miles is a good one... and stop driving when it's just going that 5 mile distance. And get some pannier bags and a rack for your bike so you can carry groceries and stuff. At least half the reason why I can do my long rides is because I bike a lot of short distances and thus the long distances are like nothin' - Wirehead

Removing commas from copy. People sure like to use commas.
I'm a comma abuser. :) - Admiral Anika
I like comma's. But only for writintg. When making speaking notes, I make sentances as simple as possible. - Roberto Bonini
I love commas, but only because I put them in where I naturally pause when speaking. Apparently I'm a super pauser. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
It is tempting, of course, to reply in such a way, using numerous commas, so that I could annoy, agitate, and agreive Annie. Oops. - CAJ, somewhere else
I, as you may not know, mentally pause, every, single, time I see a comma, so... yeah. - Annie Boccio

"Richardo Gonzales is Mr. September in the FDNY Firefighters 2007 Calendar of Heroes. (Cary Hazlegrove/FDNY Firefighters 2007 Calendar of Heroes)" - Admiral Anika from Bookmarklet
Hello Mr. Gonzales.....I LOOVEEEEEEEE fit men - Shevonne
Hi. - Derrick
The Mobile, AL fire department has a contract with the YMCA to let all of their firefighters use whichever Y gyms they want. I went for an hour with my in-laws at christmas and I was surrounded by burly men in tight blue shirts working in pairs to lift heavy metal. I was mostly intimidated, but I imagine some of y'all might've had a different reaction :P - Daniel J. Pritchett
i wouldn't kick mr. june out of bed for eatin' cookies: http://amny.image2.trb.com/amnynew... - tiffany
see? see? - Annie Boccio
Starts a fire and waits. *blush* - sean808080
I think both elaine and myself would be fighting over him - yowza - bear (aka Mike Taylor)
I'll take one to-go please! - TheDiva Rockin
LOL @Sean. Mr. January is a nice little hottie too. - Admiral Anika

I remember being strapped in with a harness, maybe 1" wide straps, connected with a clip to the seatbelt. I pretty much had free range as long as I stayed attached. - Annie Boccio
Annie Boccio
No, I'm afraid I'm not able to do your site for free/super-cheap just because you're a cousin of a friend of a friend's uncle's ex-wife.
I just got an email, "Can you make me a purse & jewelry set for my daughter's grad. I'll buy you lunch." WTF??? - Admiral Anika
Gonna quote my friend J here when people ask him for free counsel: "Sure. Can I have your car?" - Sue Radd
Sue, I should try that. This girl asked specifically for a necklace/earring set I made that I sell for $200 as a base price, but she wanted it in pink and green. She didn't offer to buy the beads or silver. She didn't offer to buy the fabric for the purse, though she sent me a picture of the swatch, it sells for $21.95 a yard. Didn't offer to pay for my time. I got lunch. And to her and expensive lunch is the a buffet at an Indian restaurant. - Admiral Anika
Dayum. As my dad used to say, "More guts than a butcher's broom...." - Sue Radd
Oh, okay...now she's on IM kinda bitching me out. Oh and I should mention that the graduation is on Friday. Like in two days. I told her to get that girl a gift card somewhere. Ah and she's not even local. She lives in another state. - Admiral Anika
It takes moxy to ask, but then to get MAD at you for declining to do free work! Sigh. - Jess
Yeah, so this is kinda putting a damper on her 3 week visit next month. Now I don't even want to see her. - Admiral Anika
I used to decorate cakes all the time and people were always asking the same thing of me. It's what caused me to stop. People always wanted a 4-tier custom made wedding cake for $25 or if it was given to them as a wedding gift, they thought they were being shortchanged by not getting a "real gift." One lady called me not too long ago and asked if I would make her daughter's graduation... more... - Trish R
I think too many people are just clueless about the value of time. I get lots who say "oh, i just need something simple" but their something simple could take hours and hours to create. - Annie Boccio
That's for sure, Annie. My friends *still* get upset I won't make them graphics or a website for free. The worse was a friend who wanted me to host her site on mine because she thought it was stupid to have to pay for hosting. - Admiral Anika
My approach for these things is the first meeting [if I like you and you're a friend] will require payment of a home-cooked meal. After that the clock is on and/or you can call India for Tech Support. - sean808080

Watching Lost. have only seen about 1/2 of the first episode before this. What have I missed? ;)
I'm so confused! lol - Annie Boccio
I don't know. I am about 8 episodes behind. I hope the DVR doesn't crash before I get to my Lost marathon. - Neil
Daisy Olsen
I'm always wondering if there are enough people in my area for a Tweetup. Anyone in Rockland cty NY or Bergen cty, NJ?
I grew up there and have a lot of family still there- so I'd be interested! - Annie Boccio
Annie Boccio
Ok, I joined the sheeple and added a bunch of you twitter peeps on friendfeed. Started importing my twitter stream again, too.
it's funny, this is the first time in months that I've logged into friendfeed and I'm just now regretting staying away for so long - David LaMorte
I used to use FF a ton- heck I'm even listed on AllTop as a friendfeederati or something like that lol. I've kept using it as an aggregator to send other places, but rarely use the site- might just start up again, though. - Annie Boccio
