I had one of tamnonlinear's famed crème de menthe brownies (which, by the way-- YUM), and here I am, wide awake nearing 3:30. Well, at least I was productive. All of my commissions are done save two (the ones upon which I am waiting for supplies), and I completed several necklaces and almost a dozen pairs of earrings. And packaged up sales orders.

I can't complain, though. I love this gig. I may have to permanently retire my Buffy 'work sucks' icon.

Tomorrow is going to be long. I have to go to the post office, hit up the bead shop for more sterling silver, work at DDI for about four hours, attend a social function I'd be a giant ass to beg out of despite my overwhelming homebody-ness, and finally crash chez Jason in the wee hours of the morning. We will be housesitting for his parents this weekend, which means there will be a Bath to End All Baths. Bubbles to the ceiling, I tell you.

I've been toying with doing an Earring of the Month Club subscription... a three, six, nine, and one year options, starting in January. It would be tiered pricing, with special incentives for the longer subscriptions (coupons, discounts, etc). Somewhere between $15 - $25 / month, including shipping. Obviously, these earrings would not be for sale anywhere else on my site, and would be exclusive to members only. Glass, semi-precious, precious stones.

I'm pondering metals. Whether the subscription should be a mixed bag of metals, or if I should offer a sterling-only option.

Hence, a poll.

Danke.

My boss just came by my office with a serving cart. I now have coffee spiked with Kahlua.

It has been an odd day.
