Ebay!

Yes, there will be more sketches but FIRST--I need to talk about how thrilled I am about selling my unwanted crap on eBay. To my great suprise, someone bought my first generation [i'm talking right off the boat] iPod for $86! Granted, that pales in comparison to the $399 or whatever it cost 4 years ago but it beats sitting in my closet or going to the Salvation army. I sold my kiteboard to some guy in Texas, my trainer kite, an older version of Quickbooks and still have the other 3 kites, 2 bikes, G4 Powerbook and Flatscreen to unload. I'm having my own little fire-sale in the comfiness of my little home.

Sooooooooo much better than your traditional yard-sale. I tried that a few years ago and it felt somewhat violating--these people rifling through your crap offering you insuling amounts for your once-prized possessions. It was interesting to see who bought what. My favorite was this big, burly biker guy who bought this delicate ceramic bluebird that my mother gave me to sell. Who would have thought.

I'm looking all over the house for things to sell. I wonder if anyone wants a copy of Photoshop 5.5? [alright, that might be a reach, but who knows]. A friend of mine said 'you could put a used coffee cup on ebay and it would sell'. I think he is right.

AND

I owe it all to my Feng Shui. I've done all sorts of work in my prosperity corner and it started working it's magic almost immediately.

Back to the 'bay. Maybe I should start selling my artwork online. Hmmm. Seriously?
