The great Morpheus of the world class flick The Matrix once stated, "Welcome to the real world."
I am so excited to be on this journey! It is so exciting! It is also unknown... which I think makes it all the more exciting! I made my first trade yesterday morning around 10 a.m. or so and I posted that new item on craigslist, on Facebook and on my blog and waited... I waited and waited and waited... and then FINALLY I got a response! It was from one "Luba Cuckler" and turned out to my severe disappointment to be a scammer trying to buy my stickers for $10,999 (just a little over my asking price)! I wasn't going to sell them anyways because I wanted to me true to myself and to my principles. But, in the end, it was just a sad attempt to get my hopes up! Thanks a lot LUBA! That doesn't even sound like a real name!!! (sorry if your name is actually Luba...)
I thought to myself this morning about what it must have been like for Kyle MacDonald when he approached his computer screen and thought..., "now is this really going to work?!" I know that this whole thing seems trivial and kinda silly, but you would have a permanent place in my memory and in the memories of all those who read this blog! I traded yesterday for a pad of stickers with my co-worker. THANKS CO-WORKER! But now, it's all "welcome to the real world!" I'm not going to get myself down after one slow day of craigslisters, because truth of it is, I tripled... no Quadrupled my daily views yesterday so I know that someone out there is reading it in the Midessa/Big Spring/Lubbock/West Texas area thinking, by golly, I sure do have something I could trade him! So let's do it! Be part of my journey! I'm pumped to see what might turn up today!
Stay tuned for more action!
"WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD"
