Given the number of items scrubbed from my to-do list, here is the ULTRA-EXCITING (yet, photo free) rundown.
Friday
* Now, I don’t know if it’s because I look like someone who would not collect antiquities or what, but, Friday night began my reign of AuctionTown.

Come on now, you should know that there is no way my yard looked like this.

Plus, I was looking for a full-wall picture of the atrocity that was and seeing as I can’t find one, [...]
