A quick fix for melancholy.

I actually did things yesterday. It made me feel much better.

My sister became sick at work yesterday with a terrible headache, so we left early and I drove us home. Terrible for her, but great for me; I accomplished round one of calling, and did a mega-listing on eBay (most items evah, yay), and I even moved the first bookcase in a short daisy chain of movements that will hopefully allow me to have another desk, one just for eBay stuff, so that I can get it all out of the living room.

Speaking of eBay...

I have done a couple stupid things in purchasing closeouts recently. As in, taking all of one item, and not realizing that it meant five containers' worth. So I've ended up with two or three things in enormous quantities. There's one particular item that I have a lot of money tied up in, but because it's not diverse, I've been selling it two teeny amounts at a time.

See, I like to keep opening bids reaaaally low. But at this rate it will be 1000 years before I get rid of it all.

So I thought, what the hell, instead of selling it by the piece ($1.25), I'll sell it in a package (about 50 pieces). Then I thought, naw, people won't be interested, a package'll start at $45!

I did it anyway. And this morning, already, three people are watching one package, and two are watching the other. *stares in disbelief* I really, really, really hope they buy them. *crosses fingers*

Wooot on all accounts! It's amazing how people buy things on eBay.

Doing things always puts me in a good mood. I did some packing last night and felt good. The move is this weekend, whee!

I love eBay, most of the time. Sometimes it's incredibly frustrating (if I had a dime for every stupid, obviously answered in the description question...) and sometimes it's exhilarating.

Yay packing! Here's hoping the move goes perfectly.
