The following is a reprint of a previously published post. Enjoy!
Hello my darling craigslist, I think it’s time I start calling you Craig.
Cause I’ve been thinking a lot about you lately. Your silky smooth listings, your sweet smelling connection, your quick response to my touch.
Every time I worry that you might not provide for me, you come bearing gifts.
Free rocks for the backyard, a $50 dishwasher, an antique chair for the living room.
I know a relationship is doomed if it’s too one sided. That’s why I gave you a rocking chair, a bin of Duplos, piles of free fill dirt.
Oh, the dirt!
I worried you might fail me when I offered you the dirt. Yard after yard of free fill dirt. But I should never have worried, I know you’d never fail me.
That doubt now shames me. How could I have doubted our bond, our connection, our love?
Sometimes I wonder if I ask too much from you. I don’t want to be, dare I say it — needy.
Yet needy I am.
Furniture, appliances, landscaping goods.
I wonder how I ever lived without you.
My sweet, my love, my craigslist.
I am forever yours.

You forgot to mention that Craig is great at helping you find dates.
I found my husband on Craigslist!
LOL! thanks for reposting!
My husband is loving Craigslist right now. He turned his Star Wars room into a weight room over the summer, and he posted a bunch of his collectibles on Craigslist on Saturday. Within hours, he’d already sold a bunch of it. He’s made almost $300, and it’s only been 5 days.
