Sorry for the tl;dr
Jan. 21st, 2009 12:40 pmI've been catching up on my Postcrossing private swaps. Quite honestly, I wasn't expecting such a surge of requests for swaps when I joined, but I can see how many people who collect postcards would need one from my country (apparently they're quite rare?). I have sent and received over 25 cards, and only two of those were through the random Postcrossing service. I had to start rejecting requests because postage isn't as cheap as I thought it was. So, I went searching through my inbox to find those who sent me stuff and never got anything back, and those I had to reject. While doing that I got 3 more requests! Now, I don't know what to do with all the cards I got. I put two beautiful ones I got from Japan in frames and put them on my wall, but the rest I keep in a folder. Any of you have ideas?
A friend and I are setting up a very small business. Well, we're still on the planning stages, but we're getting there. I hope it works out because, well, isn't that the dream? Making a living doing something you like to do? Actually, I won't quit my day job because I enjoy that too. But, I've learned that old phrase is true: You have to spend money to make money. As in, buying materials and tools (I have MOST of what I need, which is a plus).
It's so freaking hot outside, I really don't want to go out, but I'm going to the movies. We're gonna watch that new Jim Carrey movie, I don't have any hope of it being good, so maybe I'll enjoy it. Did I mention I saw Twilight yet again? All the time, I was thinking of the episode of Friends when they watch the birthing tape by mistake, and at one point Chandler says: "Why have I watched this three times?!" Yeah, the sparkling doesn't get old, it cracks me up every time. And that RPattz guy is pretty attractive when he's not donning that blank-yet-incredibly-angsty, undead expression. Who knew? Though I think he's younger than me, which is sightly depressing. Slightly.
