asterrocMy dad recently sold his old motorcycle on eBay. Yeah, I know, a total shocker! You don't think of your parents on eBay, and certainly not selling motorcycles! It was a kick-start bike though, which he can't handle anymore with those knees.

jethereal I decided I needed something to do since I didn't have any grading any more, so I first insisted we stop at a craft store, Michael's or something. I picked up some stuff for jewelry-making, and voila! Not counting startup cost (a couple boxes to hold things, and a pair of good pliers), it cost me around a dollar to make, and it'll cost another buck or two to ship, plus having to go to a post office since I don't trust my local mailbox. There's a fee of 20ยข per item I'm listing, but it's nothing to me, and some commission at the end, again no biggie.
Ooh, I've got three items up now, before even finishing this post! Pink, aqua (blue-green, for the color challenged), and a maroon set. That last one I'll lose money on if it sells for a buck, and I like it so I hope it either doesn't sell, or sells for a bundle. But if it doesn't sell, it's just more clutter around the house! More stuff I didn't have before I started this creativity streak, so selling it is better.
