craigslist, my new drug

Jessie and I have begun the process of combining our stuff together.  Without hyperbole, it’s a bit like 2 Solar Systems of stuff colliding into a small 600 sq ft. house. As a result, it’s become apparent that we have too much stuff. so in an effort to change junk into cash, i turned to craigslist.

this is my first attempt at selling on craigslist and I’M ADDICTED TO IT!!  this thing is better than a meth amphetamine sandwich! 

seconds after posting i had offers pouring in with potential buyers. that’s when the compulsive email checking started.  every “refresh” click was rapt with joy.  this is a tell-tale sign that you have just become e-addicted to something.  after every new email i began buzzing around the house rummaging through boxes trying to find other stuff to sell: my jeans, the cat, that half eaten bag of cheese sticks, my left arm; i want to sell everything.

i think i’ll calm down soon, but this blog post has already got me scanning around the room for stuff to hawk. i might have to go to the hardware store and buy a crowbar to get the cabinets down (sorry, dave and merner).
