But You Didn't

Remember the time you lent me your car
and I dented it?

I thought you’d kill me…
But you didn’t.

Remember the time I forgot to
tell you the dance was
formal,
and you came in jeans?
I thought you’d hate me…
But you didn’t.

Remember the times I’d flirt with
other boys just to make you jealous,
and
you were?
I thought you’d drop me…
But you didn’t.

There were plenty of things you did
to put up with me,
to keep me happy,
to love me,
and there are
so many things I wanted
to tell
you when you returned from
Vietnam…
But you didn’t.

In the process of making some changes to the back end of the website store and how it syncs with eBay.

I hear ’em screamin’ and a-havin’ a ball
Commotion’s comm’ from the end of the hall
I’m missin’ out on all the party again
‘Cause I can’t find the doorknob, I can’t get in
My baby’s in there and it’s makin’ me sad
I hear her laughin’ and it’s makin’ me mad
I see a dim light in the lover’s den
But I can’t find the doorknob, I can’t get in

Doorknobs would be something to learn. Not much competition, easy to ship. 

Went to a “Trade Days” where they sell antiques and collectibles. Acres and acres of vendors.

Still don’t know what I should be searching for. I brought $80, left without buying anything. I looked up a few things but no luck. My wife who’s been doing this since the ’90s bought about $700 worth of vintage things for the antique mall. There’s good deals out there but they’re not obvious, you need to know what you’re doing. I still don’t.

If I was doing this on my own I would have probably quit by now. For the hours I’ve spent it hasn’t been profitable but with my wife in the business I’m out there anyways. I’m just taking my time looking around, no pressure, I’m lucky. It would be hell to try to start this from scratch and try to make a living off it.

I wanna bite the hand that feeds me
I wanna bite that hand so badly
I want to make them wish they’d never seen me

Selling on the eBay store is going well, 100% positive feedback, 85 items sold of 170 listed (as of today exactly half of my listings have sold), every item shipped and received on time. No returns or customer issues. 

I had an issue though that has convinced me that I need to run the store from the website. I’ll still be on eBay, they are the biggest market for the things I sell but I need to become more independent and less reliant on a single platform.

The main difference this means is I’ll be here more, working on the website more. Actually turning it into a business. (I should have sold 850 items and had 1700 listed by now – that’s on me)

I’m expecting to resync the website with eBay next week, there are some items available on eBay that aren’t listed on the site. In the future I’ll have things listed on the site that won’t be available on eBay.
