Well she called me at lunch just now and asked how I was doing. We chit-chatted about 5 minutes and i told her I needed to go so I could eat lunch.
Better: " . . . needed to go, as I had a really busy day and was already late for an appointment."

I then told her I was going out tonight. She asked with who, I told her my friend Eddie and a bunch of his friends are going downtown and I didn't know when I'd be back.
Better: " . . . I told her 'Just a bunch of people, we're going downtown and I don't know when I'll be back."
