why i felt blah

My evening of selling at the Palace of Wonders was great except for the actual selling part. I just wasn't feeling it. It was strange. I am usually really ready to talk to people about all of my silly stuff, but last night I just wasn't feeling it. I did enjoy spending time with allt he Mutiny members and the venue was just so so lovely (really, check out the Palace of Wonders at 1210 H St, NE, DC). But I found myself not interested in talking about zombies or octopi. And a sour saleman makes for sour sales.

It took me a whole day to realize it, but I missed the girls so much that I could barely stand being away. I rarely spend more than an hour away from them now that I am home so this makes sense. I also felt guilty that I got to go out into the pretty fall and talk to adults while Jeff had to listen to them yell "ma, ma, ma" at him all night.

I have decided to not let this happen next week, though, when I go out again to sell at the much larger Black Cat Rock n Shop. I will be proud of my million zombie t-shirts and try to sell them all to make room for the next design. It also didn't help that I knew I would be selling more shirts online while I was out then I would sell in person. I got home to find this to be true. How rad is that? Speaking of which, I have been almost entirely updating my etsy shop with new products rather than my own shop. I have found that it is faster and easier and with all these orders pouring in, I need fast and easy! Check out the new Mr. Z that scottybmotorbike drew for me. I have named him Zed.

So, check out the etsy shop for last minute buying. There is still time to order for the holidays! I will likely close the shop next week sometime, but will be sending out priority mail packages twice a week before then.
