Waaahh...waaahhh...waaah.....So I've either got a huge cold, or my allergies really are THAT bad. I feel lousy. I can't sleep, eating is blah and I can't focus on anything. I'll be stopping at Target tonight for some Tylenol PM...maybe that will knock me out tonight...I need some sleep.
I have been trying everything to feel better. The best I can muster is that painful dryness that comes with too much Sudafed...but I can breathe through my nose. To top it all off, I am so cranky I'm starting to piss myself off. I was such a bitch to poor E! all weekend...I apologized...but I still feel terrible about how cranky I was...I would have smacked me dead if I were in his shoes.
I'm Neicy Nash and it's yard sale day...I spent all of Friday getting ready for Saturday's sale, from purchasing food, to preparing items, to bitching at E! (yep - he's a saint). We put an ad in the paper, with the address of the tag sale, hoping to get a better turn out. We forgot to take into account the crazy factor. Friday morning, I received a phone call from a potential tag sale attendee asking if we had this that and the other thing...we didn't put my phone number in the paper...CREEPY!!!!!
Saturday morning, we were up bright and early; 7:00am. While I was walking Lupe, I saw a brown van pass by my house a couple times...as well as some other random cars that slowed down just enough for me to know that they were looking for the sale. By 8am, when we started unloading my garage, there was a cluster of about 10-15 people on my front lawn...like Dawn of the Dead..."Deals...want deals..." P&B were pissed and made it clear that we were not starting the sale until the stated time of 9am.
We got through it and had a GREAT sale. It was a beautiful day, and crazy people aside, we had a lot of fun. We got a lot of compliments on the quality of merchandise and sold ~3/4 of the stuff...so much so that we didn't hold the second day - it wouldn't have been worth it.
I just reinvested my portion of the proceeds into the new door that was being put on the side of my house...and that will be a blog tomorrow with pics.
Blah Blah Blah...I am sitting on the phone and so ready to go home. Need COFFEE.
Laterz...

Tylenol PM is a must for me when I can't sleep.
Hope you feel better!
And yes...that is super creepy about the tag sale.
Ah...the power of the internet.
I had one rummage sale shortly after I first moved into my house. I've refused to have one since then. Our sale started at 8 am and I had people knocking on the garage door at 6:45.
I'd rather you play Allen Lee Haff
You are drying yourself out! You need lots of water, powerade, stuff that puts back the moisture. Get some Mucinex to get it out.
Make some hot tea, then put your face just above it and cover the cup with your hands and breathe it so it will get into your sinuses and loosen stuff up. Plus tea always makes you feel better, but HYDRATE!!!
Elizabeth Arden will put orange rinds in the tea, call it aromatherapy & charge you $200 for it.
Meanwhile, come let Nurse Brooks soothe you back to health. Hey I've managed to keep Jason alive this long haven't I?
@Tom - He was my favorite too!!!
sorry that you weren't feeling well, but that's awesome that the sale was so great. And the crazies always make excellent stories.
heh... yeah... I remember when I was little, and we'd start having people knock angrily on our garage door, wanting us to open up early... some people are just too funny.
