Jokes are only funny when you’re warm

Garage salers are crazy.

I advertised that we’d start at 4:00 pm. A guy knocked on the door at 2:00 pm saying that we’d advertised for that time. Noah told him to go and check his list (I wasn’t even off work yet) and he came back and said, “Oh, you’re right, see you at 4!”

As I was setting up inside our garage, a lady was scoping out the place at 2:45. She sat there in her car across the street until 3:10. I wasn’t about to open the garage door because all hell would break loose if I did that. I finally was ready and opened the garage door at 3:25. We were bombarded by about 60 people even before our real start time (including the overeager lady).

The bad news: It was stinkin’ cold! We closed up shop early because we were freezing, and because it seemed as though Rush Hour was over. The good news: we made $638.63. Wahoo! In reality we made $200 less than that because we sold Todd’s guitar and apparently if it’s his guitar we have to give him the money. Pffft. (No Todd, that’s not farting, it’s spitting.)

In other news, I got my hair cut. And dyed. And my eyebrows waxed. That hurts! I’ve never done the eyebrow waxing thing before, but my hairdresser is also my friend and we’d talked about it the day before, so I figured I’d try it. It’s worth the pain.

Oh, you want to see pictures? Okay.

New Haircut!

I have to say that this is my favorite hair cut in a long time. (I should have gotten Noah to take the picture this morning, instead of after a day of work and dealing with crazy garage salers, but alas.) I like the color, I like the cut, I like the fact that my bangs go behind my ears, I like that it’s short enough not to annoy my neck, and I like that I can still put it up.

What’s that? You don’t like it? Well I’ll do to you what I did to Noah earlier.

Hairy Eyeball

I may have given Noah the hairy eyeball for making me laugh when I was trying not to look like a geek for once. You know Noah, you’re supposed to put me in focus, not the background. Nice try though. You may have deserved the hairy eyeball.

Me & my hottie

But you know, when all the hairy eyeballs are said and done, I still love this guy. Because he’s hot.

Every sentence that I wrote after this, Noah made me delete because of supposed inappropriateness (which apparently isn’t a word) he exercised creative control.

The end.

StumbleUpon It!

    Your hair looks great, I am glad you like it too.

    Some people are pretty hardcore garage-salers, too funny, you made a nice amount of $$ though. :)
