So, Nate and Benlau and Billy and I went garage “sailing”, as Ben put it, on Saturday. I know I must be a girl, even if I don’t feel real girly most of the time, because I love to shop. I LOVE it. Especially digging through other people’s old stuff. Especially when it’s really cheap and I can actually afford it.

Things I intended to look for/ buy at the garage sales:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
dresser
bookshelves
desk
chair

Things I actually bought at the garage sale:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
vintage black patent leather handbag -> $3
Movies:
Playing by Heart |
Sneakers | - > $10
The Opposite of Sex |
Shiny Silver and gold Gitano watch -> $3
crappy old dresser -> $30
giant china pig to send my Casie for her birthday -> $5
Old-fashioned stoneware percolator -> $5

Then, of course, we had to go out to HOME DESPOT! We got two colors of coordinating paint, crackle medium, primer, cleaner, brushes, dishes, etc etc. Bill even got a painting hat ($.87) so he’d feel more crafty. Now, we have a kitchen full of dresser and paint, and no time to do it. It’s going to take years. YEARS.
