Being on ebay all month feels like a reddit thread; unending and ultimately after all that time sifting through thread after thread, item after item, you realize that none of it was quite satisfying. It’s like hiring an escort; time spent enthusiastically at first but no money in your wallet and tons of regrets over time. So, that’s it! I am capping my efforts here. To be completely out of the closet, I may have created this ideology after my shoegazing sesh this morning in the closet. I’m going with don’t ask don’t tell on this one. 

Final items listed for FSBO and final labeled FSBEBayValet items headed out the door today. Burned through my entire morning and the early part of my afternoon. Grrrrrrr. Perhaps this time next month however, I will be dancing around with my new laptop. One can only hope. But ebay you and I are finished, and not because you were founded by an immigrant from Iran. Desire is dead in this hooker now, but thank you for the yucks and the bucks. 

Final evaluation on this month’s journey-- I win overall. Not too much work, don’t really know the financial gains yet as these things take time. Which begs the question, would it have been easier to just fence the stuff at a pawn shop? I will never know. I find pawn shops terribly depressing and have stepped inside only a couple of times and refuse to go again if I don’t have to. All the engagement rings just lined up in the cases feel like the ultimate blvd. of broken dreams. You wonder if they replaced their lovers for a love of drugs or just a bunch of hustlers of hearts out there. Maybe there was a prostitute involved?

Woke up at 7:30 and the next thing I knew it was 9pm and I still have to go to the studio to record my promos and my billboards. Two weekly radio shows is going to be a barrel of fun but also a tun of work (that spelling is correct). 

Managed to list out one more electronic I found thank goodness. I am digging in my heels about selling my shoes. The month is short and ebay valet goes away in two days so how much damage can I possibly do? 

My fingers are sensitively numb from typing so much and using that magic pad on my mac. I did buy these gloves for times like these. I’m going to have to break them out or maybe just call it a night when I get back from the studio.

Very exciting things happening and not enough hours to do them in and already scheduling the weekend up. Thursday eve through Sunday night is spoken for. Yikes! 

Started thinking about next month’s theme. Vacillating between trying something new in my mouth each day or exploring some other new thing daily like a new shop or word or song or something.
