So, this is attempt number three we're going for here, writing this blog post.

I get interrupted at work a lot, so even though I made a great start on it yesterday, my post window got closed before I published the post!

So obviously I have been in non internet land for some time now...I dont have it at home so I haven't been a surf-a-holic since oh...february. It's weird, and at the same time I have more "free time"...or rather more time to slack off in other ways instead :)

SO on June 24th I moved into my new condo. Finally, after all the drama and dissapointment and changes, it's ALL MINE. I don't have much FURNITURE yet...but still. That will come in time. :) I have a livingroom (tiny), a bedroom (Fairly tiny) a kitchen (small but good..attached to the tiny livingroom) and a bathroom (actually pretty large..huge tub). Thank God I have the best parents in the world, who made this possible. I have pretty special parents whom I'll never be able to thank enough, ever. :)

I love the floors, I love the finishes..even the bathroom tiles (which I didn't get to pick) are growing on me, now that I found coordinating bathroom things. Also, I get hooked up for internet, cable and phone on monday morning...an expense I DID NOT miss, but a necessary set of evils :) So that's great as well!

In other news, Kitsch Klothing is just running along very well. It's been in a bit of neglected limbo since I started this whole shebang of moving and buying. I DID manage to get to Anime North (I know I've posted about that before) and did really well, which has encouraged me a lot. I think in a year or two if I focus I could be doing Kitsch Full time.
My next step(s) are to approach some stores about having my merchandise in their store...though I feel I need to get some screenprinted before I go take that step!!! I want to show off my best stuff. There is an idea called lazer patch which might work well..I will have to go down and look at samples, but I have not had time as of yet.

I'm also pretty busy at work. We're doing the main stuff, as well as organizing the party for my friend Amanda who had a brain aneurysm...that party takes place on July 21st. If anyone in toronto reads this and wants to come, ticketds are $30.00 and include buffet dinner..it's a great time to meet new people, and win some great prizes! (We have even got some signed maple leafs stuff donated..:)

In the interests of people who are wondering what I will be up to this summer, I plan to update my blog and carry it on in a new format...instead of being an announcement board I'm going to be sort of showing the progress I go through on my quest to make kitsch work :) my livejournal will still be the same. I may be attending anthrocon in Montreal..I'm going to have to make up my mind pretty quick since it's in august, but we'll see how that goes. I'd also like to do the clothing show, and like I said..get a press release and some packages out to local toronto stores and let people know about my stuff! IT should be a busy, exciting and fun summer.

In between I'm going to visit with family, try and find furntiure to fit my tiny new house :)I hope you all don't forget me if I am not around as much..I think of my internet family often ;p :) In only the best of ways, of course! In any case I WILL be around more as of next week, which is exciting!

I hope to see and meet some of you at the upcoming conventions this summer, and some of you will definitely see me next year at the gathering. I seem to do okay with the every-second-year attendance plan. :)

Woo hoo! Post is done. I will be back soon, with more news flashes!
