Retire? I laugh sadly. 13 years till I'm 65, but I'm expecting to be greeting people at a WalMart the day before I die.

Hiya Holli!
How's the vintage life going?

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'm eligible to retire in about 6.5 years. Realistically, it'll probably be a little longer. Although the current plan is to retire to something I want to do, without worrying about whether it brings in enough money to pay the bills.

Look what you made me do.
I regret nothing!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

How's the vintage life going?
Pretty well! I keep finding cool stuff. I feel like I've lucked into some sort of racket-- I get to go to thrift stores and estate sales all the time, buy whatever I want, and then people give me MORE money. It's crazy!
Last night I went to a last-chance estate sale and bought a bunch more books than I should have. But they were really pretty books.

Sharks with friggin lasers. For real.
more books than I should have.
These words don’t make any sense to me.

Well, I have 30 boxes of vintage books in my garage. So I should not be acquiring more, even if they do have really nice illustrations.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Re: Shark, with laser...
“If there was a way the shark could operate the laser on its own accord and use it against humans, we wouldn’t even attempt this.”
Heh.

I miss estate sales, they don't have them here in Utah. I think all of a person's stuff just gets divided among the kids or sent to the LDS church thrift store, where it's picked over for good stuff then the rest distributed to their own stores.
