ohmigoshomigoshohmigosh! Other people's trash! One time when I was waiting for Dino outside the drug dealer's house (what drug dealer? he owed "this guy" some money and had to wait for him... there... just for a minute... no... he couldn't give it to the guy's mom... he didn't trust her.... no I better stay in the car.... just for a minute) for about an hour and half, there was this pile of trash on the curb. I memorized it I looked at it for so long. A few days later when he was trying to wring money out of me he did his poor-pitiful-me-I-need-money-for-doctors routine using a crutch that had been lying on the heap. I'd know that crutch, or anything else that was in that pile, anywhere. I was very unsympathetic AND I have the crutch.
One crutch.... used!

I have another available item for our sale. My older daughter works at Petco and one day about a month and a half ago she brought home a rat and called her Lucky. A man had purchased her and then returned her because his snake would not eat her. Well Lucky gave birth to 13 babies on Setember 12th and 13th. So many it took her two days......bummer. The father is black and white and she is beige so we have a nice assortment of colors and patterns. Any takers??????
Please let me know soon ........they are driving me crazy!!
OH RATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How about 145 boxes of Lucky Charms? He HAD to have Lucky Charms any time he was coming down and left all these partial boxes at my house.
Oh I have a few tapes too - let's see there's "Jailhouse Rock", "Don't Wait Up For the Shrimp Boat Mama, Daddy's coming home with the Crabs" (real song arghh), and an old codie favourite by my fellow Canadian Anne Murray...."He Needed Me"...yeah right Annie

I would like to sell the stupid floppy hats that he wears on a binge. He looks like such and idiot in these hats, with the stupid drunken face underneath.
once, a while ago when I thought this kind of stuff would work, I cut one up (the "Main Offender") and left it on the table where he would see it when he came in. He was sooo mad.

How about 3-4 boxes of stuff that is all over my dining room. I will end up packing because when he finally, finally gets around to coming to get it he won't think to pack it up before his ride gets here.
The main bargain is a beautiful terr cloth thick robe -Xmas '02 -with a wonderfully big burn hole.
The burn hole matches a burn hole on his very expensive La-Z-Boy recliner (50th birthday) that had to be covered up with a pillowcase. You might have to go to his place and fight him for the chair because it's his only piece of furniture. (Him being too lazy (haha) to find any other furniture, doncha know!)

Uh, no thanks.. believe me, we have plenty!!! Anyway, it's not the base ball hats that irk me, just the floppy ones. And now, with cubs doing so well, it's just another excuse to go out!!! (god forbid he should not watch the games while in a bar or at a friend's house!!! and then after the game to go somewhere else, and stroll in here at 6am!!!) Sorry to all the Cubbies fans out there, but I hope they lose!!(and soon)

Anyone want trophies to go with the ball caps? I have dozens---they're a great reminder of who he used to be. At your house they might remind your A what they SHOULD have been! (Don't bite, it's just a job.)
How about 60s and 70s arcade machines? PacMan, Centipede, even the old non electronic pinball machines. I've got 10 for sale. Seems they aren't half as much fun when he isn't high.

Did someone mention burn holes? I've got a couch with about 50, a bed covered in them, carpet melted down to plastic. Shirts, jeans, shoes (don't ask!) Has an artistic flare to it - all thanks to me and my past heroine addiction. Having this stuff around just reminds me of the "good 'ol times!" HAH!!

You guys would PROBABLY say my Brady Bunch book collection. But NEVER will I part with that!!! 
I have a whole room full of junk to get rid of! More importantly, if I move to Dallas, I need someone to sort it for me because whenever I go in there I start reading and forget I am packing!!!

I have a neuroscience degree; tell your rat pups to run 'cause I have a project in mind!
p.s. I do love animals-I foster them-just not rodents, so don't get any ideas that your post will elicit my compassionate, fostering side
