Craigslist...who's craig anyway?

So, I decided to buy furniture instead of living with my echo-ing living room (thank you to all of those who thought I was living in a cave). My furniture was delivered this weekend so I decided to put my chairs and some other odds and ends on craigslist.

HOLY SHIT!

It's like moths to the flame. I actually had the furniture on a few weeks ago priced pretty high (after looking at other postings) so I figured that if I drop my prices (hell it ain't making me any money sitting in my spare room) that I may hear from a person or two. I heard from 6 people within an hour! One woman even offered me more money so that she could have them first. I am still waiting to hear from the first responder but if not, I am going to the highest bidder!!

This past weekend was good. I went to the Raleigh Flea Market...very fun and eclectic. I am looking forward to the State Fair which is coming next week. My friend who is a local says that it is the best place for fried food and people watching. Can't wait....fried snickers, here I come!!!

It is with great sadness that I say farewell to Paul Newman. I just heard on the news that he died and I am devastated. Not only did he start camps for sick kids but he makes killer salad dressing. Below is a quote tribute to some of my favorite Newman quotes:

• "A condemned man has a right to a last request doesn't he? I got my truck out back whaddya say we get in the back get naked and see where it goes from there? " from Nobody's Fool


• "But we are involved, Etta. Don't you know that? I mean you are riding on my bicycle - in some Arabian countries that's the same as being married." from Butch Cassidy


• "You gotta have two things to win. You gotta have brains and you gotta have balls. Now, you got too much of one and not enough of the other." from The Color of Money
