\o/ Friday!

I have stayed up stupid late once more, but this time with a purpose: I have mapped out garage sales for tomorrow morning, so now I can head out in the morning and hit most of them when they're still going strong, instead of compiling the list in the morning and hitting the road when most of them are closing.

I love garage sales: the prices, the variety, the random weirdnesses. Sometimes I get to rescue old D&D books. Other times I pick up kitchen gadget parts to replace stuff that's broken. I've outfitted the Emperor mainly through used clothes.

Also with the stupid lateness, I've refreshed my MP3 player with the recent Night Vale episodes and Alton Browncasts. I'll let it charge through the night so it can play in the car all day tomorrow.

Other things on the to-do list for this weekend:
Hit the semi-annual consignment sale for toys and uniform pieces for the Emperor
Weed the front garden beds
Process the tomatoes sitting patiently on my counter
Clean up my room (somewhere my mom is laughing and she doesn't even know why)
Take the Emperor on a whirlwind trip through the seasonal Halloween shops to assemble his Adventure Time Lich costume
Take the Emperor to the library to refresh his stash of Garfield books
Visit the craft stores for other parts of his costume
Organize the basement to make room for the treadmill
Pay bills, file paperwork

And with that, I should get my ass to bed. Good night, Interwebs. Good night. ;)

I make my own fun. :) It was something my parents use to do when I was a kid, then it became a great way to fill up the early Saturday mornings when the baby Emperor would not sleep in. (Plus, people sell a ton of untouched baby stuff at garage sales.)

Yay, garage sales! I had three church rummage sales mapped out for this morning -- and then frittered my time away instead. Oh, well. I hep you scored some great stuff!

Sometimes a lazy morning is an even better deal. :)

I did get some good deals - a couple sets of king-size sheets for $8, some clothes, mini-LED lights, and other odds and ends.
