Craig's List = Freak Magnet

For any of you following me on Facebook, you know that 1) I'm moving to NYC next week, 2) I have a lot of stuff and 3) I'm prone to panic about not being able to sell all my stuff.  In short, I'm a hopping good time these days.  HOPPING.

So I've posted a ton of things on Craig's List in hopes of selling them off and finding my things new homes.  What I did not expect from Craig's List, maybe because I'm a naive biddy as well as a new old one, is the CRAZY emails I would get that have nothing to do with my stuff that's for sale.  

The following is my favorite which arrived this morning.  I have yet to understand it.  But I do giggle at it.

Hi there

I sttarted at your statement on craigslst and so though you'd be interested in this newsletter. That aid me produce dollars on line. You'll never have to deal certain thing on crqgslist,as she and me. Trust me Im an ordinary guy like you and I was usually in denile about these stuiped schemes until I gave it a try. I let you see by yourself.

bye

There are many things about this letter that delight me:

1)  I never made a statement on Craig's List other than, "Please by my stuff so I don't curl up in the fetal position."

2)  I adore the fact that Craig's List is misspelled throughout.

3)  "She and me."  

4)  I am not an ordinary guy!  Assuming such a thing, sir, just makes an ass out of you and me.  (Or she and me... depending.)

5)  "Denile" isn't just a river in Africa apparently.

So now I'm torn between wanting to sell my stuff and wanting to keep it online so I can receive more humorous emails.  Oh the trials and tribulations of a jackassy and panicked biddy...

Thanksgiving Odds & Ends

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  I ate too much.  I will not be eating for a week, at best.  Possibly a month.  Or a year.  All I can say is: "Pumpkin cheesecake for the win!"  :)

I wanted to take this time to thank all of you for your continued support over the year.  "The New Old Biddy" has grown by leaps and bounds thanks to you guys!  I never would have been able to make "Assignment: Jennifer!" without all your Project Runway blog love.  And now, because of all the momentum you guys have given me, I've finally been able to open a New Old Biddy Cafe Press Store!  It has a ton of things that delight me with graphics from "Assignment: Jennifer!"  

Happy holidays! And may you find your inner biddy and celebrate her!  (Fellas, find your inner codger.  Sexy!)

Happy fists!
Jennifer (Eolin)

Project Runway Round-Up - Episode 14 - Finally, The Finale is OVER!

GUIDELINES TO READING JENNIFER (EOLIN'S) PROJECT RUNWAY BLOG:

* Jennifer was severely bored by Season 6 of Project Runway.

* Jennifer knows she CAN NOT do any better than the Season 6 designers.

* And Jennifer REALLY knows she can't be a model.  Boy howdy.

* HOWEVER!!

* Jennifer DOES believe she can do better producing.

* There.

* I said it.

* Neener neener.

Last week on Project Runway:

Papa Gunn makes bisquits in a sexy apron with Carol Hannah.

Then he meets Princess.  And her dog, Princess.

Then he single-handedly brings the word "Egads!" back into current vernacular.

Carol Hannah is sick, but not trendy enough to get Swine Flu.

The designers are not at all surprised by having to construct a 13th look.

LOGAN RETURNS!

And nothing else matters.

SWOON.

YAWN.  Is it finally over?  Is it?? Or am I just in a badly inspired Dallas dream and when I wake up, we will only be on the scintillating "make something in blue" challenge?

"I'm an old reference, but solid.

Because it's morning."

TEE HEE!
