I've sold things through Amazon's second-hand bookselling, and I feel like that gets the most visibility, although they take a commission. Mostly I've sold fairly pricey academic books that are in print, or recently out of print, but not old or rare. You might ask a local bookseller if they take things on commission?

Now if I could only convince Pete to sell off the complete sets of things he's got.

It's nuts, I haven't played the game in decades, but then I look at the cards and love the art, and I remember how much fun it was. Then I remember how much I hate the twistiness of modern rules--and of modern players--and know I won't be playing it anymore. Maybe I'll just grab screen shots and create a slide show of the prettiest stuff.

Oh, and Pete's signature on a card makes common cards more valuable, BTW.

Looks like there will be boozin' on the deck shortly. Woohoo!

Found out my pool is closing tomorrow, not monday. So tomorrow begins the schlep to far flung Ys. They totally screwed the scheduling because the next nearest doesn't reopen until Monday. Bleh.

Heh. Good to know.

He's been selling some of the original art, which is good but crazy. We had to sit down and decide which pieces were NOT ever for sale. (Baron Sengir. And the painting of me for the V:tES card.)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Well huh. CJ's ARP group is on call tomorrow morning to go into the mountains to assist with a body recovery. I believe this is the person from last weekend's search.

He is at his dad's for the weekend and finally KCD will get to know the "fun" of getting him to HQ for an early call.

I guess the car wash fundraiser scheduled for tomorrow is off.

If I were rich, I would buy all the goblin and orc stuff he had. He does wonderful orcs and gobbos.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hee, I like Orcish Settlers.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

OMG BOARD!!

Also, I spent the entire day with the extended in-laws. Who are INSANE but not in the same way that my family are insane, and I know how to deal with mine. and now I'm all peopled out and need the people in the little box instead.

I LOVE YOU BOX PEOPLE. You are not my crazy second-cousins-in-law.

So, that party last night?

Brothers' friends got me drinking. Today has been rough.

My mom and I had theater tickets, which was delightful, and sitting in the dark for two hours probably did me a lot of good, but then two friends her hers insisted we go for a drink with them, and they wouldn't let me not have one. It was basically torture. Yeesh.

At least I know I'll feel better tomorrow!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My XBF called to regale me with his latest stories of life in NYC. Then he asks what's going on with me, and I have nothing to tell him. Like, "um, there's a fox on my porch..." He asks out of politeness, but I'm sure he's bored. Because my life is boring. But still, I don't want to be in NYC.
