    Had A Good All Around Day

    Yesterday was pretty sweet. Got to work and a coworker had a lead on a fridge and some other stuff (unfortunately it was too far to go to be profitable). Then one of our customers calls and asks if I want some steel from his job site. Sure do! An hour later another customer calls me to let me know he'll be leaving a washing machine outside a clients house for me to pick up. Sweet. Then for the same town (had to pick up after my 9-5) one of my repeat clients wants me to get some computer stuff out of his garage ASAP! Okay, no problem! There I ended up with little to scrap as the tower he gave me just needs a hard drive (and mine just went, how convenient!), and the laptop, homemade server and (sentinel? Drone?) other little tower all just have the HDDs removed. Plus a working monitor and printer/scanner. Almost all like new!



    It's 6:30 and I haven't even curb shopped yet. Unload real quick and go out. Mediocre run until I see a stove and a tv 2 doors down. Nice. Had to rearrange the van to take the stove and when I'm done, have the key in the ignition, ready to go, and the middle house's garage door starts opening, revealing a tube tv that looks very unwanted I wait and an older woman makes her way out and says I can have it, do I want a lawnmower too? Yes!

    Didn't find much else for the rest of the night (except those a$$less chaps!) but I did find a starter electric guitar for the slowly forming band Ferrous Bueller (love that name!) and a telescope I haven't had time to check out yet.
    METAL IS MY MISTRESS...PLEASE DON'T TELL MY WIFE!
