i'm leaving everything in 5 days... or 6?
well, close enough.
i was going to sell my second guitar today to a stranger(the first was auctioned off at my fundraiser last night).
we made the meeting.
he offered cash.
i walked out of my apartment, guitar in hand.
the guitar that was my mom's.
the guitar my first boyfriend taught me to play on.
the guitar that is slightly out of tune.the guitar i never play anymore.
i couldn't do it.i walked half way to starbucks where we were going to meet.
stopped in the street, looked at the guitar, turned around and went home.
cried.
i've sold my furniture, my bike, my cd's, my tv, my dvd player.
i've given away my clothes, my dishes...
i just couldn't bear to part with one more thing.
at least not today.
i'm feeling like a bit of a spaz.
but i wouldn't have forgiven myself for selling that guitar to a stranger.
sometimes things are important.
