I saw some shirts of his on a big mailing list I'm on, and it doesn't look like he's been around of late.

Back from DragonCon 2008. Pictures here if anyone's interested, since I seem to recall a lot of people were last year.

This is about the extent of my internet interaction these days:


That ones amuses me every time, but I do really love to hear myself talk. More at http://youtube.com/dailywheel if you're so inclined.

Nearly dragged me back into the shirt-buying fold. A sale, combined with some nice prints over the last few weeks? Sign me up!

Oh wait, you changed to that horrible, pseudo-AA shirt style and retired my beloved FotL. Alas, Threadless must go the way of the Oddica and the other all-AA shops, I can't abide the form-fitting, over-smooth feel. Shame that.


In other news, how's everyone doing? :)

Update: Okay fine, so you did get me. Next time Gadget!

I received my SV package like over a week ago. I'm slow though, so I'm just now getting around to blogging it. I got a tasty bit o' lovin' from one Nicole aka squeege. She's already shown you some of her handywork, but in my joy I recaptured it:



Isn't that insanely awesome? I didn't decorate my box for good reason: no one deserves to get kindergarten quality stick figures in the mail.

The box contained some good stuff, too.

To wit:
One (1) handmade heart-shaped valentine
One (1) DVD "My Bloody Valentine"
One (1) Sesame Street "V is for Valentine" coloring book
One (1) baggie containing eight (8) medium-sized Caryola crayons
Two (2) boxes of Necco brand Sweethearts candies
One (1) custom music compilation consisting of two (2) CDs and two (2) track listings contained in two (2) handmade cases:


All together a pretty sweet haul. Those CD cases amuse me to no end. Thanks Nicole. :)

She left me a note in the coloring book!

I'll see what I can do about that. :)

Speaking of Secret Valentines and my slowness, I mailed mine late last night. Here's a sample:

Could this questionably packaged box of joy be winging itself your way? If you're a domestic (no pun intended) female and you haven't yet received yours, watch this space.

Yeah, I know it's mostly my fault, and I know there were all sorts of good reasons for the staggard releases, but I found this sale to be a lot less enjoyable than the standard "$10 for X amount of time" sale. First, I've been told that somehow shipping to me in Georgia is either more than or not a lot less than shipping to some people in England, which is kind of ridiculous, if accurate. This only furthered my disdain for ordering small batches of shirts. So when they released some shirts I wanted early on, I put them in my cart and waited. Slowly a handful more I wanted appeard, and they were carted as well. Now, Threadless has added a nice feature to warn you when stock of something in your cart is getting low. I got a few of those. Each time I thought, "Well, either they'll hold out or they won't. No sense rushing for one shirt I don't really want that bad." I actually got the warning a couple of times for some shirts, as I think they stumbled upon a few missing pieces. This encouraged me to wait.

Now we get to yesterday, the supposedly penultimate day of shirt releasing. Out of 12 shirts in the cart, we've lost 4 for sure. Acceptable attrition. Surely the last day will be replete with radiant releases to compensate my losses?

Nope. In fact, not only are there no new shirts, I lose another third of my cart (only one of which I heard about through email).

And to think if I'd've just given up I could've gotten most of what I wanted at the halfway mark. *sigh*

Okay, end of my whine (whinge?). You can go back to your regularly scheduled art theft and STP query blogs. :)

(Incidentally, Threadless has apparently removed the ability to use divs or spans in blogs, which pisses me right off, because I like using tooltips, dammit.)
