3 for 1 posting, again

August 22 - I was invited to Lyn's birthday party. Needless to say, I did not attend.

August 28 - I was sent a quote for wedding invitations. Not my wedding. It's that Erin in Lafayette again. Dang it. She's inviting a lot more people than I am.

August 29 - My hairdresser sent me a notice that she left the old place b/c she's starting her own venture. Good for her. Too bad I don't live anywhere near San Carlos, CA...

I am a popular lady this week. I gotta get my hair did so I can have birthday dinner and a wedding. That's just how I roll.


Or, not.

I've been a little busy lately with graduation and school stuff, so I've let the e-mails pile up a little bit. I've got three gems to share today:

1. The Lafayette Public Library wants me to know about their "Book Talk" Newsletter. They've got a Great Authors tour going on right now and their also celebrating Louisiana's Bicentennial this year. Horray for them! They also have genealogy 101 seminars this summer, if people are interested.

2. TK and the Antidote at Out to Lunch Today! When Tyler Kechely and Lacey Claeys join together you can be sure it’ll be a good time! Come on down from 11:30am – 1:00pm. Here’s the food line-up: Carousel will have taco boats, tuna salad, cookies, ice cream, soda; Vanilla Bean will have pad thai, turkey sandwiches, cookies, ice tea, lemonade; Silver Star will have prime rib pepper jack sandwiches.
[Some thoughts: a) I don't know what a taco boat is. b) this comes to me from Helena, WA and c) I don't need any groove added to my Thursdays.]

And, finally...
3. A complete stranger would like me to contribute to her American Cancer Society DetermiNation campaign. Worthy cause, but I don't know you!

Oy. I have a feeling I have two contributing factors working against me. I think some Erins are saying that their e-mails are just "my name" at gmail... and people who assume that their email addresses are as such... And, now that I'm thinking about it... I may have to amend that thought to add - people who sign up for mailing lists and intentionally put the wrong e-mail address. Jerks.

Wrong Erin Thomas IN PERSON EDITION

Yesterday I went to get a massage because my significant other was worried about the Groupon he bought me expiring before I could use it. I made the appointment on Friday and went in Saturday morning a little early because I knew I would have to fill out a form.

I wrote down my name, address, and where I didn't want to be massaged, etc. and then I sat down to wait for the therapist to come get me.

When she came to get me she had a piece of paper with my name on it, but not my address or anything else. She had the WRONG Erin Thomas! Jiminy Christmas. I can't even get away from other Erin Thomases when I go to relax! The receptionist gave the therapist my paper and told me that they'd put in some kind of notifier to differentiate us.

Sheesh. It's weird being me.

I also need to add the forgotten e-mail story.

I got a couple of notifiers from UPS regarding a package delivery to Hillsborough, CA the other day. I got the initial "we've shipped it" and then the completed "we delivered your stuff" e-mails.

I wonder what this person got. I'm often curious about that kind of thing. It weighed in at a pound, so it wasn't very big or heavy. This story is not as amusing as others.

Um, I'm not even sure what to say about this one. I don't know what WEB is. I don't live in Atlanta (and I never have). I'm not a member, nor am I a plan sponsor...
I think it might have something to do with insurance...
