Why do we love watching American Idol? I can’t believe I spent about 2 hours watching that show. Most people were just making fools of themselves. It is probably because it’s so entertaining. I think my personal favorite was the Paris Hilton look alike. What I don’t get is that these people really think they are good and that they are going to be big and famous for their music.
I have been experiencing the enjoyment of selling things online. It’s really fun to list things and then get a bunch of people interested and e-mailing you about the items. So far I have sold our entertainment center and one of our bookcases. Tomorrow I will list a few more things.
One of my friends is doing this as her business and I totally get the fun of it now. It’s not just a chore, it’s exciting. Hopefully things will continue to sell! I totally encourage everyone to use Craigslist, at least for larger items such as furniture.

Hi Mirjam (I am unable to call you Mir
Do people really call you Mir or is that your signature, like I sign e but nobody really calls me e)
Anyway…..I watched some of American Idol also and all I can say is client, client, client, client, client, cli…..
Good luck with Craigslist. I am going to try that with some extra furniture. (lightbulb moment) And I think I am going to perfect my custom garden stones made from cement and put them on craigslist. They are too heavy to send in the mail.
I really enjoy seeing you happy (big smile from e here and such a warm feeling in my heart for you)

Hi e! “mir” actually goes way back with me. In high school I was very much into NHL and frequented a chat site where we would talk about hockey for hours. My handle was mir. In college I actually had a few friends that would call me Mir. I was also called just “M”. I guess my name is too long for some.
I’m sorry again for standing you up today. I really didn’t mean to. I will make it up to you! If that caramel latte was any good… then it’s on me!

Mirjam,
I think that people watch American Idol because it makes them feel better about themselves. Last night I called Aaron to let him know I was going to sing the National Anthem at the Wrestling Tourneyment, and he said “That’s good you’ll do great, because even when we were younger we couldn’t get you to shut up so at least the crowd will be able to hear you.” What a great support system our family has!!! Well today I called him and told him that I did absolutely the best I feel that I have ever done. So I think that people want to be on American Idol because for just one moment in time, people want to hear what kind of talent they have. Sorry for writing a book. Love ya guys. See you soon….hopefully.
Love Suzoo

Check ebay to get an idea of it’s value. If you want to post it on Craiglist…make sure you take lots of pictures. Ask a fair price and see what happens! Good Luck!
