Day 206: 11:11 1/11/11!!!!!11one

Last week Jess added some textbooks to our Half.com inventory which has boosted our sales a bit. Today I wrapped one of my books from this last semester, "Philosophy of the Daodejing", in our new standard: brown paper bag. This one was going to Lawrence, so I thought I'd take it myself after work and save a couple bucks on shipping. One of our newer closers called in to work today, saying his face was leaking (which we judged to be a runny nose). But even working with the other new guy, and picking up face leaker's slack, we managed to get out roughly on time. It was about 9 degrees outside, and too dark to see addresses, so eventually I gave up and went home. Luckily, Jess had just finished making the macaroni and beef we got in our Angel Food Ministries package. We ate on the couch while she was curled up in her snuggie reading and I played The Sims 3. Kind of a trying day, but the end made it all worth it.

Success!

Day 32: Boooooring

Nothing really interesting happened today. 

We sold another item on Half.com and, since February, we've sold more than $460 worth of games, books, movies, and music on that website.  It feels nice to be getting rid of junk in the house and getting paid for it!

We also looked through various vendor and brand websites to make a list of the possible choices for our new TV.  Now that we're not moving, we can buy one as soon as we decide what to get!
