Gmail Hilarity

So... I have a seldom-used gmail account that's been in operation for the past couple of years. I checked it just the other day, mainly to clear it out, and I noticed something peculiar. Apparently, a woman by the name of Shauna Ballo thinks we're friends; I'm on her mass emails, evites, etc...

I've been invited to some pretty scrumptious parties over the past year - and keep getting pictures of their child.

Here are some of the gmail emails:

Hi!

You've been invited to be a part of a recipe exchange; something a little different and fun.

Please send a recipe to the people whose name is listed in the number 1 &2 position below (even if you don't know them) and it should preferably be something quick, easy and without rare ingredients. Actually, the best one is one you know in your head and can type out and send right now. Then, copy this letter into a new e-mail, move my name to the number 1 position and put your name in the number 2 position. Only my and your name should show when you send your e-mail. Send to 20 friends. If you cannot do this within 5 days, let me know so it will be fair to those participating. It's fun to see where they come from!!

Seldom does anyone drop out because we can all use new recipes. The turn around is fast because only 2 names are on the list.

We've finally updated our blog, check it out at: http://www.ballofamily.blogspot.com/

Great photos of the pumpkin patch and an adorable video clip of Audrey giggling, that's guaranteed to make you laugh and smile no matter what mood you're in. Be sure to have your speakers on.

Feel free to leave a "comment" after the blog post (like "Oh my god, that's the most beautiful baby ever" or "Oh my god, stop sending me photos of your baby already") so we know you were there.

how cute is this photo?











(Oh - and wait until you log onto the Ballo's blog - it's really something! that little Audrey is really coming along! Let me reiterate - I HAVE ZERO IDEA WHO THESE PEOPLE ARE!)

I'm not really sure what to do: Let them know they have the wrong person, or just go with it and become part of their extended family? After all, Audrey is pretty cute in that there pumpkin patch.

Oh my god. I AM Shauna Ballo. And I had no idea how boring my emails were until seeing them through the eyes of a blogger. Let me know what your email addy is so I can figure out who's email I have yours confused with. Someone in my family has been missing out on recipe exchanges and baby photos!
