When it’s your birthday, you get to eat lots of cake. The whole cake, if you’re so inclined!

Yes, today is Truman’s birthday. Not the day that we adopted him, mind you. But his actual birthday. We have a birth certificat from the American Kennel Club and everything. He turned four as of 12:01 this morning.

I’ll try not to be one of those creepy dog people who has the pet they adore as if it were their own child, but I’m always cognisant of these little milestones. I sometimes think about my life in terms of a B.T. and A.T. timeline – "Before Truman" and "After Truman."

Sure, he may have recently chewed up my Nintendo DS, but I still love the little dickens!

To celebrate the occasion, I wanted to announce a TWO WEEK PRE-SALE on t-shirts and baby doll tees going on in the store. As you know, I recently liquidated my inventory to make room for some new designs. Well, the new designs are finally here! I strongly encourage you to check them out. I was very pleased with the results. What do you think?

"TRUMAN MGM"

"FILM STRIP"

I should also make you guys aware that the baby-doll version of these designs come in different color combinations. So you ladies will have yet another asset when it comes to driving the boys crazy… with JEALOUSY!

I should also make note that an oldie-but-a-goodie has also reared its head in the store. That’s right, I’ve brought back the "Spoiler" shirt. So if you’re still one of the unlucky few who hasn’t gotten their hands on one of these yet, now is the time to do it!

As I mentioned earlier, THIS IS A PRE-SALE taking place for TWO WEEKS between Wednesday, February 22 and Wednesday, March 8. After which, I will remove these designs from the store and process the orders through my printer. It is my hope that my printer can turn around these shirts in a timely manner – perhaps as early as two weeks after March 8 – so that I can start delivering them the week of March 27.

So to recap, that’s 2 weeks for pre-order, 2 weeks for the printer to produce the shirts and 1 week for me to send everything out.

This time out I am being very conscientious about setting standards and explainations so there is no confusion as to when you will receive your shirt. If anything changes between now and then, I will be sure to let you know in this blog space.

I’m very excited about these new designs and I hope you are, too. I finally feel as though I’ve reached a new level with my shirt designs and these are designs that I’m eager to get back from the printer because I want to wear them myself!

If you guys have questions, feel free to drop me a line. Thanks again for your continued support!
