   I worry about myself sometimes...
For some reason I just got this wild hair up my ass and decided to clean the bathroom. All pretty and sparklie, smells like lime :) But I had a bit of a thought. Maybe I could get a job at a hotel or something and do house keeping. I would go for one of the agencies around town that cleans houses, but you have to have references for that, and I haven't ever done anything like that before. Jeremy has, so I have learned tons of different cleaning tips from him. One of the best so far, even though it is the one I hate the most, bleach works for everything. Too bad I get it anywhere on my skin, I smell like it for a week, lol. The last I saw, there were a few house keeping jobs in the want ads, so I'll have to get today's paper and look.
Until then, I have found another solution. I am going to sell my possessions on Ebay! Not all of them, of course, but I have a handfull of antiques and collectibles that are just sitting around here collecting dust. They are cluttering my space, so why not sell them for a pretty penny so I can make a buck and the junk can clutter someone else's space. I have like 10 Happy Holiday Barbies that my grandmother thought I needed to get every year until I turned 16, so I am going to sell them first. They are supposed to be an investment, and they are investing my ass above water until I can get another job. There are a couple in the collection worth like 500 or 600 bucks. I know I won't get that out of them, so I am just going to sell them for either 50 or 100 a piece, depending on the doll. Or at least set my reserve for 100 or so for the older dolls that are worth more. And if they don't sell, there is always the antique mall that sells all sorts of useless junk for way expensive prices that the northerners will buy when they come down here. It's hillarious, the northerners come down here, the prices on everything seem to go up three fold. This town thrives on snow bird season (no offense to anyone in the northern states, I am making references to most of the old people that drive like hell and spend all of their money down here fishing and on antiques and the like). I have a few old signed posters of Marilyn Manson too. I might put those up for auction, but I really like them. My first one was from before they got big and stuff. It's black and white hanging on my wall. I really like it!
Ok, now I'm going to clean the kitchen too. It looks like hell!

Laters,
V.
