Things of Note:

So. October 1st. That came up suddenly, huh? We are now 75% done with 2013, wrap your head around that. Yeesh. But, on the upside, October is awesome. It’s my birthday month, and is full of Halloween candy, and tasty cider and pumpkin-y things. There’s the bonus trip to NY this year, too, which means I’ll actually see some autumn in action, not just hear about it. It also means I only have a few spare weeks left to try to tackle things on my 29 Before 29 list.

I’ve been busy printing up all of the leftover long-sleeve stock from before my decision to move to a new stockist. I’m hoping to get those up in the shop this week before heading out of town. I also spent this morning fixing my professional website. I don’t know what it is about my install or theme or what, but it seems any contact form plug-in I try spazzes out after a little while, breaking my whole site. Usually the day after I send out lots of quotes and bids, too, which is just awesome. (heavy sarcasm)

Anyway, that’s how things are rolling here. How are you doing this week?
