Selling the Garage…
Don’t you hate cleaning the crap out of your closets and basement? I know I do. That’s what I spent this past weekend doing, in anticipation of the annual redneck tradition of having a neighborhood-wide garage sale.
Unfortunately, due to my job, I didn’t have time to completely clean out the closet, but I managed to get a bunch of stuff out and down to the garage for the sale. It’s nice to have some additional closet space for a change… but I know I’m just going to fill it back up with crap again. I’m such a damn pack-rat. I only half-cleaned out my office closet and I can see stuff in there I haven’t touched in five years (when I moved in).
Just what kind of crap is in my redneck garage sale? Let’s take a look…
- Various clothing I haven’t worn in five years
- Computer Monitors, Keyboards and Mice
- Cordless Telephones, Answering Machines, and Caller ID Devices
- One Full-Wave, King Size Waterbed
- Two End Tables
- Various VHS Cassette Tapes
- A Late 90’s Ford Explorer Cargo Cover
- A used toilet, clean
- Lawn mowers, leaf blowers, and trimmers
- A couple of computer printers, dot matrix!
- Lamps!
- An empty 55 gallon drum
- Any other crap I no longer need
Yes, I said I’m selling a used toilet. Want to buy it? It’s only ten bucks. I wonder if I can sell it on ::ebay(”used toilet”,”eBay”):: if I don’t sell it here.
The best part about a garage sale is that you get a little bit of money for stuff that was collecting dust and taking up space in your place anyway and you get clean closets again. To me, nothing is more satisfying that knowing all the crap is gone. I think I’ll have another garage sale this fall.
