This is my new favorite old show
In unrelated news, I have now experienced a garage sale first-hand. I've never been a garage sale person. I think I've been to one in my whole life. Our neighborhood hosts one every six months and my neighbor talked me into joining forces with her. I HAD NO IDEA PEOPLE WOULD PAY MONEY FOR SO MUCH JUNK! I have literally been throwing away thousands of dollars worth of stuff each year, never suspecting that I could get money for it.
My all time favorite was when I came out of my neighbor's house and say an older woman leaving with one of Chad's old swimsuits tucked under her arm.
Me: "Um, did that lady just buy Chad's swimsuit? I thought I didn't put that out for sale. That's gross."
Dana: "She only bought it for 50 cents. Wait till you hear what she's going to use it for..."
Me: "What?"
Dana: "She's going to cut out the net lining and dye it black and wrap it around candles to look like spiderwebs."
Me: "I think I'm going to throw up now."
Dana: "I know! Cause that's the part all up against his--"
Me: "Enough, Dana! No more garage sales!"
But when all is said and done, I did make about $150 off my junk. And I thought of a lot of puns to put here but I'm going to refrain.

I love Veronica Mars! We have it on Netflicks so I watched it from the beginning while on bed rest.
That's just wrong about the swimsuit and even with your refraining about the junk comments, i've been married to Chris long enough that I can insert my own comments thank you very much!
I hate to say it, but really I'm not surprised about the whole bathing suit thing....
I had to see what Beth commented here...I knew she would!
Do you know where the old lady lives? What if you take your kids trick-or-treating at her house and she's giving out home made rice crispy treats or something??
I found 2 awesome things at garage sales when we first got married that I swear we will have in our house till the day I die. So I was all hyped up on garage sales but since then they've all been duds. Like too many people with too many dogs trying to sell too much stuff that's covered in too much dog fur. Hit and miss.
Hilarious, Katie. I needed a good laugh today:)
