You Can't Buy Hair Like Mine ... or Maybe You Can

This is the third blog I've written today. One I deleted totally, and one I saved as a draft for later. It seems like everything I try today is either too trivial or too expansive for me to tackle.

A bit of good news -- this week Lucy's has sold five of my cozies. I'm too gloomy to expect this trend to continue, but even that money helps considerably.

So, in light of my recent good fortune, and semi-blogger's block, this will be a random post (yeah, I know, what's new?).

At the garage sale a couple weeks ago, some random guy offered to buy one of my braids. Someone else offered to buy the thrift store blanket all my stuff was displayed on.

"They" say everything has a price, but that's not really true. I wouldn't sell my grandfather's camera's, and I don't think I'd give up the Molly doll my grandmother gave me when I was eight. But here are some things I would sell ... although it would take a lot.

One Braid -- $150
Two Braids -- $250 (a $50 savings!!)
Magic Quad Blanket -- $350
Favorite (handmade) Scarf (brown) -- $100
Favorite (handmade) Scarf (multi) -- $50

The most valuable things in my life probably wouldn't get more than $10 on eBay. They're worth practically nothing to anyone who isn't me (except maybe the quad blanket, which is truly magical). Honestly, though, I think I like it that way.

no carrie no!! you can't sell the magic quad blanket!! i gasped when i read that you put a price on it. don't let it go!!!

and by "braids", do you mean your hair? i'm confused...don't sell your hair. then you would totally lose our ongoing contest.

If there was a way that I could have your hair transferred to my head, I may consider it. You have the best hair ever. seriously...even better than Heather Locklear and she does hair commercials!
