So remember a while ago when you signed up for the government’s sweet Do Not Call list? Have you changed your number recently? Today I got a solicitation from a company trying to sell me automated calls.. how cliché!
So here’s me walking you thru the steps again just to keep at least your # privacy safe O.o Continue reading
So it’s a good thing I had the internet on my side on this one. Apparently, if you send someone an invoice from PayPal, they pay, you send the goods and give them tracking information.. even when they DO receive the goods, they have a chance to revoke payment.
I mentioned that I was selling a camera on Facebook Marketplace, because I figured it would reach friends and friends of friends. Apparently, it reached some hacked or bogus users.
Their stories go like this: I am in the military or I am in the US but I need to ship this to my buddy/mom/sister over in S Africa/Nigeria/Somewhere in Africa so I am willing to pay an extra $100 to cover shipping expenses. Please send an invoice from PayPal to my Gmail/Hotmail account so I may pay you.
They pay, you ship, they receive, they revoke. You end up without your goods and without their money.
The only way to really combat this is sell on eBay, where you will qualify for seller protection or only take local payments. I may move my ads to Craigslist so eBay doesn’t take any of my earnings 
Check out my ads:
And it’s by the founders of this company I’ve been courting with, Hubspot.. and it really makes me think, what the heck is my message?
Do you want me to give you all the places to network or socialize in the Boston Metro area?
Do you want me to talk about real estate? Beauty? Deals and giveaways? Promotional gigs and jorbs?
Do you want me to talk about sex and relationships?
Do you want to read more about how you should buy social media services from me and let me provide you with some fun marketing ideas?
I do that best in person… So, if you want to become one of my “case studies,” where I work on your social media endeavors for super cheap (or barter), you’re going to have to hit me up below.. and if you’re in the Boston area, I can meet with you! One on one. For reals.
Wanna know what I can do for you? Just ask and I’ll send you a quick email w/ a .pdf of what I can do for ya
And you can leave your email address in the comments section with a nice little comment telling me what you think I should do with my life online henceforth! I have a few opportunities; I just need to figure out how I should be allocating my time!

OH, and here’s where you can get that book. Thank me later
I JUST picked up a new Kodak PlaySport in Abyss from the Best Buy in Back Bay 
Problem is: It doesn’t come with ANY internal memory. OK, it gives me 30 seconds in WVGA, 6 in 1080, but my 8GB SDHC card is coming in today from Newegg.. along with my 2 TB hard drive, USB dongle (LOVE that word) and tripod. heh. I’m going to have to wait a few hours. At least it takes like 2 days to get the majority of my Newegg stuff in after ordering
Newegg seems to be having sick sales every day recently. Here’s today’s dealios.
So this week..
Have you even checked out www.SocialiteInTraining.com ?? There are tons of events I post weekly on that ish and they’re ALL worth checking out.
And, I’m adding more to my www.BeantownSocialite.com blog, so stay tuned. I’m working on the functionality of this site so you can subscribe!
I wrote to them, replied to the email saying my ban would get lifted and even tried bribing them to get me back on and I’m still off. #PITA
It’s hard for me to just talk on my BeantownSocialite.com. There isn’t as enough engagement and I’m really going crazy not being able to talk to 13k strangers about my personal life. Is that so much to ask? So NOW I’m just going to have to vent about life on my blog. Guess that’s what you’re here for too, right?
Social media and all that comes with it has been pretty fast and serious for me lately. Unfortunately, my clients need to create WEEKLY CONTENT in order for me to work my magic effectively. It’s fun when it works, and believe me honey, I can make it work, but it’s up to YOU, the expert in YOUR FIELD to get me the info I need.
Social media…
I’m getting my hands dirty learning how to edit WordPress CSS. It’s not too hard to figure out; there are many sources on the web just by Googling it. Interesting stuff with customized headers, cool widgets and plug ins and I think I’ve seen EVERY SINGLE WordPress theme ever imaginable over the past week. It took a while to figure out what I really wanted to use for LynnMurphy.tv, and I’m still not completely set with what I’m doing yet, but watch for it to go live within the next two weeks.
CoupMe.com apparently has a new guy running it and I’ll meet him soon, and hopefully he’ll agree with me when it comes down to content on blogs needing to be not so redundant as the deal of the day. See kids: there’s a pretty sick function in WP where you can click “Edit” next to “Publish immediately” and change the date. You can backdate in WP; you can’t in Facebook or Twitter.
So what’s going on in my Twitter world? I’m still posting to @CoupMe so you know how to mention when you’re trying to get in touch
You gotta let me know; I’m still tangled up in blue but now I’m kind of weary to talk about it.. <3
layla's fail whale
..but I am still kicking
Such a whirlwind of the past few weeks! Working on my projects, CoupMe.com (doing their Twitter, engaging, WP Blog, Facebook Fan Page, trying to think up new promos), Lynn-Murphy.com hosted WP blog and her Lynn Murphy TV YouTube page (learn how to knit and craft), Twitter, Fan Page and anything else we can get to make her the next Martha. You gotta listen to her accent and watch her videos, she’s so cute and so Rhode Island )
There are a few other items in the works but these two are the most notable
So, this weekend, my man <3 and I went up to NH and VT. I wanted to hit the Magic Hat parade and we wanted to go shopping. Ended up heading to Ri Ra, which was AWESOME, and I yanked a couple of Magic Hat pint glasses b/c that’s how I roll on my fudget budget.
I came home to my Lilia who, while my roommate was watching her, somehow shredded the corner of my bed and pulled it 1/2way across the room. I have no idea how she did it. And she ate my rug. Well, now she’s going to have to sleep on that 1/2 eaten rug b/c she lost room privelidges and she’s going to be stuck in her kennel days when I’m gone (which is barely) or on the floor on that godforsaken rug. Damnit Lilia! I come home from this dream and the bubble just gets completely popped the SECOND I walked through the door.
Can’t I just have some serenity when I come home? I really love my dog but there’s a fine line between loving her b/c she’s psycho and her making me completely melt down @ times. You do not want to hear me yell @ her when she’s chasing shadows (like she’s doing now) b/c it’s futile. She’ll just keep doing it. So she’s on Clomacalm until further notice. She’s only 1/2way thru the first bottle and the vet said that training would be pointless until she has taken them for at least a month.
So I sit here, trying not to go too crazy off of Twitter (I still have Facebook!!), and trying not to get too wrapped up in Lil. I think there’s more rug I have to sweep up on the floor from yesterday, I just haven’t looked @ it yet, b/c I wen to 10 in Providence to “network” (eat sushi) and got home from the commuter rail pretty late last night.
So this week:
Tonight (Tuesday) Kickass Cupcakes and Alibi team up. 5p and until close
AND there’s a Just Cause Fundraiser going on @ the same time. Donation of $10 plz!
Cupcakes and Karma. What could be sweeter?
There’s actually a Party @ Milky Way in JP but I don’t think I’m ready to bear that 1hr+ T ride from Q-town. Charles/MGH is right up the Red!
Wednesday I signed up for a Dictator Party. What’s a Dictator you say? I’m a Citysearch Dictator which pretty much means if I write well for them, they send me some pretty sick places. This week it’s a Trina’s Hotdog event. Who wants to come with?
Wed there’s also a ONEin3 event.. @ Ft Point. Where’s that? Idk, Google it.
THURSDAY! There’s South St Diner’s $10 Lobster Anniversary DEAL! Yah.
And.. another Alibi event: BizBuzz. Bring BizCards –AND RSVP
And here’s a little bit of writing I do on the side for Citysearch… Want to be a “dictator” and get free events and schwag? Ask me and I’ll be glad to sponsor you in and we can attend TOGETHER )
Okay, I’m sure you’re thinking THAT’S ENOUGH FROM YOU for now. b/c it is.
Talk to you sooner than later (especially if you leave a comment…)

Anyway, I want one. I want to plug it in or BLUETOOTH it to a 60+” LED HDTV and my pipe dream. Dig it? Your feelings? lmk!!
