truckin' along

It's nice to have an ordinary day.  I had a bit of an upset stomach earlier, but not bad.  Probably just need to eat more mindfully today (which is never a bad idea anyway).

My doll auction is up over $300.  Seems crazy to me, the surprise that that old doll is worth so much, considering I'd done a little bit of google-noodling.  I just hadn't caught on that she was as old as she is, or that the original attire element would make her so desirable.  Last night some person messaged me this, though:  "End the auction and keep her. You will regret selling her. Money can not buy sentimental value."  How fucking obnoxious is that?  (Pretty fucking obnoxious, say I.)

It's bracket day at work.  Tracy's been out sick, but she got her picks in.

I'm so glad the auction is going so well! And that person was completely obnoxious.

Money can't buy it, but strangers on the interwebz can instill it for you. /eyes rolling so hard

I know right?

Can money teach people to spell cannot as a single word? Until it does, I believe we should all feel free to just ignore any advice from people who cannot spell cannot.

I'd like to say I can not pay attention to such people. But my abilities are limited.

Exactly!

Uh, how can anyone know which things have sentimental value to you, and which don't? Jeeze.

Good luck on getting some money, and getting the doll to someone for whom it does have sentimental value!

Thanks!

Old dolls mostly seem creepy to me.

Dolls can tread awfully close to the uncanny valley. Which is why I think old dolls are a staple of horror movies.
