Goats and Pez Candy

Okay so the title is a little strange, I know. But read on, and you'll understand why.

At one point in the past six months or so, I owned 3 snowboards. One was really just for decoration because I never rode it, and it was too short for me anyway. So I sold it. Now I am down to two.

I recently decided to sell the love of my life: my Burton Feelgood. I bought this board at High-Five-O for less than cost (aka instead of it being $500 bucks, I got it for 240ish). Sweet deal, I know. But, I have another love: my Flow Myriad. I have had that board longer, and its kind of like a marriage to me. My relationship (yes I have a relationship with an inanimate object) is more everlasting with the Myriad. The Feelgood is like an affair, I suppose. Anyway, I can't bring myself to sell the Myriad because I feel I would be being unfaithful in a sense. So I posted an ad on my school's website--2006 Burton Feelgood. Chick board... blah blah.































(My Feelgood is white by the way. Not black. And my Myriad is pink one.)

So it's been approximately a week since I posted that ad. I have gotten one email about it, and the girl wanted pictures. 

The other day, I got a text from a random phone number. Before I read it, I thought to myself "Ooo, maybe this is for my snowboard!". False. I opened the text and it read something like this, "Does the pez dispenser come with pez?". So then I thought one of my friends was texting me some stupid joke. I asked who it was, and they responded saying they were inquiring about an ad I had posted concerning pez dispensers. I apologized and said I owned no pez or pez dispensers. So weird.

Last night, I got a couple phone calls from a random Utah number. She left a voicemail, but it cut in and out so I didn't know what she wanted for sure, but I figured it was about my board because she started out saying, "Hi I was inquiring about...". K, so I called her back later, and she says, "I was calling about the goat you have for sale?" A goat?? What the junk! So again. I apologize. I have no goat, miss. I have a snowboard though! If you want one of those... Negative. 

So. SOMEONE out there is playing a joke on me. I swear. Craig's list, maybe? I should've asked those people where they saw my "ad". I'm so confused. I have no idea who could be doing this. I mean, goats and pez? For real? I must say, it's very clever. I commend whoever it is. But seriously. Fess up, K? Haha.
