To give a bit of background, this conversation happened a few days after we met in person when my band played on a TV show and she was in the studio audience. A few days later I sent her a flyer to our next show on myspace and she said something along the lines of "I dare you to send me a flyer again". I went on to flood her page with flyers. And then...

Can I? Oh good. Just send them UPS overnight.
So I hear. The word on facebook is I've been tagged. Which makes me it. Which sucks. Cause tag bags are frowned upon.
Where do you work?

i work at PGM Inc. it a phone survey place. it's lame-o but i actually like it a lot there. i have worked there so long that they love me and i would have to try really hard to get fired. i can do anythng there haha. but yeah, i just barely realized i dont even have to work on friday when you guys play so i dont need to worry about the time.

Tag bags. Its like a tag back but instead of tagging someone, you smack em with a bag of fruits or potatoes (depending on the season). That or I cant spell.
What do you do then? What exactly gets surveyed? Why did you lie to me earlier about you working friday?
I start working at Barnes and Noble on Thursday. Ive been usless and unemployed for a bit now. Sad really.

barnes and noble eh? that seems like it would be a cool job. i love books.
right now i'm doing a customer satisfaction survey for a home warranty company. its pretty easy. i didn't lie! i thought i had to.... but i dont, YAY
being unemployed is the best, except for the lack of money. thats terrible.
do you have any messenger of sorts? msn? aim?

Im hoping it will be. I hate retail. But maybe itll be ok selling something I like. And the discount is good. And i hate real jobs in general so its ok I spose.
Do you get people yelling at you for calling them? Whats the meanest thing a person has done?
I had msn long ago. Then i retired it. Turned to the dark side of text messaging. hehe. Which can be done by texting "Knitted Hats" to 801-898-9045.

people do get mad. they think we are selling something or they are busy and just dont want to talk. i had one guy yell an extremely long line of swear words at me for trying to do a survey with his grandma once. its usually not bad. it just sucks they insult you personally haha

I worked for Direct TVs call center before tour but quit before we actually started making calls so i didnt get to deal with mean people.
Guess the moral of your storie is to not talk to peoples grandmoms.
At this point I assume we went on to text messages. In case you are curious, we went on to date for 7 months or so and then she got engaged a month after we broke up. The end.

There are a few minor typos, but other than that it flowed pretty well. I would suggest putting in some background info for certain things:)
First, be careful about posting your phone number online, that is, unless it's not your number anymore. Then it's kinda funny.
It's an online conversation, so it flows that way. It doesn't lend itself to being read aloud. It's a bit long, and that makes it a somewhat tedious to read. The conversation is witty and definitely flirtatious, but that doesn't necessarily draw me along. I noticed that the time between responses was long, so maybe try to discuss what you were doing at the time, to give some context, so it's not just a floating conversation in cyberspace.
At the beginning when you mention and then...
check your myspace (and read all of it)
that was a bit confusing for me. Was it in a email that you got that message? Other than that I thought it was good and interesting.
