Empty room

Friday night I did not go to work. Went to bed at a reasonable hour, and woke up Saturday morning at a reasonable hour. Got the place ready for my open house / moving sale. The craigslist post drew a few people right at 2pm. They bought a bunch of stuff, and most of the furniture was taken care of. Then I sat here bored until about 6, when Ronny came over. He was followed shortly by Cris, with a 'friend' that Ronny thought I'd like. Well, turns out to have been Diego (Mr. ewwww-troll)! He liked my place, and was very friendly and sweet, and bought a bunch of stuff, including the rest of the large furniture pieces. Then Brad came over, just as the Brazilians were all leaving. Ronny had a date, and Cris was taking Diego back home with his new furniture.

Brad was upset, because he'd been sitting at home waiting for Cris to come home so that they could come over. When he finally broke down and called, Cris was at my place. The usual, in other words.

But other than those three friends, and a random hottie, none of my 40-some friends who were invited bothered showing up. It kind of pisses me off. The last few parties I tried to throw, nobody came to, but I thought maybe the threat of never seeing me again, coupled with the chance to buy dirt cheap stuff would lure at least a COUPLE of the bastards over. Wrong... I need to have a round 2 just to clear more of the clutter. Maybe one or two of the selfish bitches will come over!

Sunday I installed my new smoke detectors and the CO sensors, so I can pass the state mandated fire safety inspection. Total rip-off. Then met up with Brad and Cris and saw Mama Mia! We enjoyed it a lot. Along the lines of Hairspray, it's just fun and exuberant.
