All week long I&#8217;ve offered <a href=\"http:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop\/theogeo\">every print in the shop for $3 less than the original price<\/a>. This means 8x10s for $17, etc. That offer ends TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT. I am yelling for emphasis. Like a town crier. TONIGHT AT MIDNIGHT! YOUR $3 WILL SUDDENLY NOT BUY YOU AS MUCH!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/theogeo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/il_570xN.200649167.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"4562\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/theogeo.com\/blog\/randomosity\/shop-news-because-i-live-to-spam-you\/attachment\/il_570xn-200649167\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/theogeo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/il_570xN.200649167.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"570,369\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"il_570xN.200649167\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/theogeo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/il_570xN.200649167.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/theogeo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/il_570xN.200649167.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"il_570xN.200649167\" width=\"570\" height=\"369\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/theogeo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/il_570xN.200649167.jpg 570w, https:\/\/theogeo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/12\/il_570xN.200649167-300x194.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Also, I put up <a href=\"http:\/\/www.etsy.com\/listing\/63993682\/set-of-10-5x7-folded-holly-berry-holiday\">one last set of holiday cards<\/a>:  a simple holly berry card with a cordial greeting inside. I made these for my mom because she loved the picture so much, and I decided to sell an extra set. Set of 10 cards plus envelopes, $18 plus shipping. When that set&#8217;s gone, we&#8217;re done with the holiday cards. Next year I have to figure out a more cost-effective way to have those things printed and shipped to me. I don&#8217;t think I even broke even on them this year. Eeesh. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going out of town this weekend, so if you want things to get to you by Christmas, you had better order them ASAP. <\/p>\n<p>Eh, these are things you don&#8217;t need or want to know. I&#8217;m feeling loopy thanks to two glasses of wine on an empty stomach (being overworked is just <i>fabulous<\/i> for a gal&#8217;s figure) and the smell of this crazy craft glue I&#8217;m using on a new set of magnets.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The thing with becoming a part-time hawker-of-all-the-shit-I-make that I have a hard time doing is the self-promotion.
