It felt like forever, but I finally got off my fat butt and made a version of my beer penguin design that's suitable for dark t-shirts. I'll be burning this onto screen by tomorrow at the earliest. Sorry about the image quality in the mock-up version, I'll try to re-post it when I'm not feeling so tired. Also, my Black Friday weekend/Cyber Monday sale is still going on, so act now...you won't be seeing this kind of deal again for an entire year! Night, y'all.
Hey hey, hope that all who celebrate Thanksgiving had a wonderful time. I had a small get-together with a few friends, we cooked and we nommed. Had roast leg of lamb, mashed potatoes with gravy, buttered rolls, baked butternut squash and had low-fat carrot cake. Yup, I'll definitely be struggling into my jeans this season. -_-;;;
Before I go into another food coma, I just wanna post my epic Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale.

New tee design (mock-up)! I've been working and re-working this sumi-e-inspired one around for a while, and I finally conquered it earlier today. Thoughts? I'm also still kicking a few other designs around, but those may take a little while longer. Alright, I'm off to bed now. G'night, everyone!
(I'll try to find the link where you can download the t-shirt mock-up templates.)
There's been a sudden cold snap along with an extra-flashy thunderstorm just a couple of days ago. So I whipped up a TeamHiP treasury to go with the theme of one's butt freezing off. Check it out!
And there couldn't be a better time than October to feature these great indie horror flicks. Even if you're not a believer of the paranormal, you can't deny that these videos are mildly entertaining, at the very least. :)
"Ten Steps" - A similar incident actually happened to a good friend of mine. Scroll down if interested, but it does contain stuff that will spoil the ending if you haven't seen this video yet.
In reference to the "Ten Steps" film posted above, a close friend of mine (I'll call him "C") had a rather interesting paranormal incident not too different from said film. He lives in an old apartment building in St. Louis, Missouri. This apartment building has quite a bit of history, but due to the way management runs things, it hasn't been updated in some time...so it has "character."
Anyway, said building was prone to semi-frequent power outages, and one night when the power went out, C decided to step out for a bit until it came back on. To get down to ground level, he had to walk down a couple flights of stairs that consist of approximately twenty-five steps. Everything was pitch black, but he's lived at his apartment long enough to know his way around.
C heads down the stairs, and instead of expecting ground level after the twenty-fifth step, he found himself walking further down more steps. He was baffled and creeped out as all bejesus, yet felt compelled to continue onward. He claimed that he must have counted about 400 steps and felt like he was walking for ages before he reached an actual bottom. And at that very moment, the power came back on. He looked around to find that everything around him was back to normal, with the staircase at its normal twenty-five steps. He had no clue what just happened and cannot find any logical reasoning to it. He made it clear that he wasn't inebriated in any sort of way at the time. I knew well enough that he doesn't lie about things like this, but I'll just leave that to the reader's judgement. Still entertaining, at the very least. :P
I'm very happy to announce that I was recently featured in two fantastic blogs! Michelle of Michabella Creations was kind enough to feature all three of my Etsy shops on Handmade in PA. Also, my Dublin Street print got a spot in Steve Raley of Photogrunt's "Urban" edition along with a collection of other great photos from amazing photographers. Thanks, Michelle and Steve!
