1st Annual Yard Sale

This last Saturday a couple friends and I got together for a good old fashioned yard sale. It was nice to make a few thousand dollars and get rid of clothes I haven't rocked in the last year as well as sever the final ties to my gambling habit.

But what was even better was sitting on the lawn in front of Andy and Mike's house (aka The Brokeback Mansion) and enjoying the beautiful morning with a couple of friends while listening to Justin Timberlake. It was just like having a BBQ at 8AM without the smokey grill and greasy meat.

Here are a few highlights:

• Selling the broken cell phone to the crazy guy with the giant helmet and making his day.
• Watching the lady try to snag the glitter jeans from the guy who was buying them for his girlfriend when he wasn't looking.
• Selling cookies to the nice family in the SUV and seeing how excited the little girls were to eat cookies for breakfast.
• Eating like 9 cupcakes because they tasted so good. I think they might have been made from crack cocaine.
• Having the little old German lady who may or may not have been the landlord think we were gypsies and ask why the crazy American women would sell junk on the lawn so they could buy more junk.
• Making Borat jokes after being called gypsies.
• Watching Dan wear the suit jacket all morning that he purchased from me so he could have a suit to wear in case somebody dies.

In summation, the yard sale was fantastic and I hope to make it an annual event. Everybody wins when it comes to yard sales. Especially those people who want to sell video games, DVDs, and electronics.
