garage-sale-deprived nebraskans

if i said i was in line at 7:30 this morning to go to a church garage sale, would you believe me? also, if i said the 15 people ahead of me were cackling 65+ year old women and men, would you believe me? and, if i said i purchased a church pew, would you believe me?

(and yes, a line up outside a church garage sale, in january, in nebraska.) it was 1 degree last night people. O.N.E. madness. and when the workers were coming out to unlock the doors...multiple people shrieking back at us quasi-committed folk in the back..."they're coming! they're coming to open the doors!" i presume smoke signals or flashlight messaging happened as well because all of a sudden there were at least 30 more g' salers behind me. in an instant, people.
 

my advice: don't get in the way of garage-sale-deprived nebraska folk.

4 had something to say.:

  1. really.... 7:30 A.M.... sounds a lot like what happens on the "Mother of all garage sales" in March!!!

  2. Of course I would believe you. Those people are garage sale deprived in January, but more importantly football season is over so their Saturdays are freed up!
