Legacy
Hey my dear friends who are kind of digital communicators. e mail is just great, and i love voice mail on my cell phone which works for me 24-7. but i just can't get into text. I guess i can send and receive messages crudely, but it's difficult to type. if i got good at it i guess it would be ok. Wife and I went to the auto auction tonight. It's up at Dover, DE. We were going to dine at "Jimmies"
which is this famous place that all my friends that go to the beach on 404 know about. But we got a late start. we didn't get to have dinner, so I ate at the sale. A hot dog and small chili. Wife had a "Clementine" she had brought and we found my 8 pack reeses cups in the truck. I was craving coffee. You have to put up 400 bucks just to bid at this auction. It was cold. It was loud. It was very fast. Except when you were waiting in line to sign in and back out. that was too slow for me and i opted for waiting till today to go back and settle up. I bought a little 16 year old car for $1200 and it probably won't make it home, let alone thru inspection. Speaking of auctions. One week ago and two weeks ago tonight i went to a different auction, the one at American Corner. It's just junk every thurs night, but I like it. Two Thursdays ago I bought a ceder chest for 80 bucks and gave it to Wife. Even though it's not fancy or perfect, she likes it.
I bought a few boxes of vinyl 45 records too. Then last week Wife came along to see what else they have. We wound up buying a really nice quality futon. And a couple of cool old tables I want to make into a computer desk. I bought a set of seven nickels for twelve dollars. Ever heard of a "shield" nickel? I bought some cool little tools. For two dollars I bought a bunch of old picture frames for hangar art in the man-cave. Anyway this could be an inexpensive hobby. But I spent $1200 tonight so I gotta cut it out. You should check out the auction. DVD's are about 50 cents if you buy a bunch. Books are really cheap. the furniture is fun, but not always cheap. Do you think maybe I'm settling in to retirement?
