Due to some rather predictable circumstances with the BIGWOOD's during the renegotiations of the 50% participation fee , I felt obligated to REPO my shit and sell it else where. I'd like to give a huge shout out of gratitude to Jenni & her family for taking me in past the last minute but most importantly....for helping me repossess my shit like a lost 80's episode of Super Market Sweep! We were in and out in less then two minutes flat, in the pouring rain, collecting tables & totes of my useless shit for what could have been called a training op for the following organizations (another list) if we had a camera crew:
- The Military
- Pissed off & Scorned Housewives
- Sibling Rivalries.....how to prove YOUR point
- The True Meaning of Friendship.......sticking with your bestie
5. How to repossess your shit with class
Now, I'm sure that none of the following organizations are actually real with the exception of the Military........but if they were, well we could teach them a thing or two! Hell, I be a member of most of them but only if they had establishments that offered cheap beer, crappy cover bands, smoking & fashionable membership attire or jewelry.
As for the actual garage sale, well the long day of rainy weather deterred most of the shoppers but definitely NOT The crazy ones. We had a wonderful experience with a gentlemen who I would say was nothing less then a "Solider of Christ". We saw him coming as far as a county mile in his Jesus Saves & Died for You NEON GREEN redemption t-shirt. He ran through our sale so fast you would have thought Jesus himself was coming!!! After sharing a brief but VERY awkward conversation with this man of Christ, he wanted to know where all the guns & knives were at? We politely explained that we didn't have items of that sort to sell but we would gladly offer him the our microwave or the like new straight jacket, all at discounted prices!!!
This event was scheduled to run through the entire weekend but by the time Sunday rolled around.....we had already closed the shop down for good! It was to hot & humid, which also deterred customer from shopping and damn it......we just didn't want to do again!
My total earnings for BIG event = $0.00
Spending the day with Jenni & the next best thing to Jesus = PRICELESS
