05/16/2006: "Drum carder dreams"


So here's the deal.

A drum carder is expensive. Very expensive. Like, Several Hundred Dollars That I Do Not Have, Especially After Shelling Out For My Car kind of expensive. But I have to have a car and no matter how honed my debating skills might be, there is nothing I can say to adequately defend "Resolved: Kristin Needs a Drum Carder" right now.

Which is why I'm selling off my stuff.

Well not all of it. But, you see, I have a lot of stuff. And by stuff I mean crap that is weighing me down and filling up my office, which is sort of cramped to begin with. Stuff like CDs that I don't listen to, for example. Or books I have read 27 times that still look pretty new, being fairly easy on the spines as I am. Or a wedding dress I never wore for a wedding I'm grateful I never had. Maybe some watches I bought in the early 90's under some delusion of potential increased value that never materialized.

Stuff like that.

I'm feeling ready to let it go and also I need the space in my increasingly untidy office and also? Maybe? If I sell this stuff I can buy other stuff. Stuff that will allow me to enhance my fiber stash, which will never ever be large enough to crowd me out of my office. Ever. Because one can always sit on roving and call it "Raw Pillows" and who's to know?

Only you and I, and you won't tell, right?
