Late night ramblings
Sep. 5th, 2009 11:28 pmI am exhausted and constantly starving this weekend. Exhausted I can explain, didn't get to sleep until 4am on Friday because I was so excited about petsitting (BIG DOGGIES YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY!!!!), and this morning I had a 5:30am wake-up time for helping with a Garage Sale.
-You Kiwis, btw? You can laugh. The one of the Kiwi pronunciations I've managed to retain is 'Garage'. It continues to confuse people. \o/ (that and 'aluminium')
But it's been a good couple of days. Got to babysit yesterday which resulted in the line: "We have to go inside now, my butt is singing."
-It was followed by an enthusiastic little boy proclaiming "Oh! Your butt is singing! We have to go inside! Right now!"
...mobile phone timers are wonderful things. ^__^
The best story of the day for the Garage sale was the elderly gent who was talking about a garage sale he went to that had a big sign out front: "Hagglers Welcome."
After laughing about that, he talked about a garage sale he held where people would try to argue him down from $.50 an item to $.25. He's say no, but he could make them a deal, 2 for $1, and they'd jump all over it.
^^;; People are silly.
Nother gent said that my outfit (a sundress over cargo pants) was very 'Chic'. Which is both flattering and confusing as 'chic' is not generally a word associated with myself. o_O
