Day 36: Scanner

I've finally found a printer that only tries to ruin my life about 10% of the time -- it actually prints correctly the other 90%, and for a printer, that's an amazing ratio. (If you have three minutes, read the most accurate summary of printers ever written here.)

Anyway. My mostly-cooperative printer is an all-in-one, so I decided it was safe to sell my old Canon photo scanner. The product shot for craigslist was pretty boring, so I went ahead and scanned my face. Um, more than once. I think I have a new favorite hobby!

DESTINATION: Marlton, NJ by way of craigslist.

a few house rules...

...better known as excuses designed to make our lives easier.

1) If we throw something away on Thursday but don't get a chance to post until Friday, it counts.

2) If we get rid of a few things at once, we can post them one at a time over the next few days. It's our stuff and we want to give it a proper send-off. Besides, we can't tell craigslisters, "Can you come tomorrow instead? We're all blogged-out today."

3) Sometimes we'll throw a pile of crap out and count it as five days' worth. Sometimes we'll throw a pile of crap out and call it one day. Both are fine, because we make the rules.

Rules subject to change when we feel like it.
