Still don't have a job. Will make some phonecalls today to see how the resumes are taking hold. Still revising my resume with Firethorn's help.

Naturally, as can be expected after 2 months of not working at all and Christmas, money's getting tight. Not drastic or anything...just a little tighter than I feel comfortable.

So, of course, that's when my Karma takes hold.

On Saturday, I got an email from someone interested in buying the domain name limewear.com. I wrote back, we conversed a bit, and in short order, I sold the domain name.

Let's be fair...while sales at cafe press have been OK, they haven't been stellar, and I haven't really been putting any time into it of late. Additionally, I'm working on dissolving the company and such. I don't need the headache of additional tax returns and such. If and when I decide to spend my life making tshirts, I will do all the paperwork I need. Right now? Not interested.

Basically, the store is still there...http://www.cafepress.com/limewear...but limewear.com is now pointing to some placeholder of the nice man's choosing. I asked him what he's doing with it, and he's starting an online service, and wants the traffic that limewear.com brings. It IS true that I generate about 15000 unique visitors a month...which ain't bad as far as driving traffic, really. If some guy in Australia wants it...Limewear can do without it.

Anyway, the sale of the domain name will cover my expenses for about 2 months...and if I decide to reprint the labels and hangtags without the domain name, I'll just have to cover that myself.

Pretty good news, really.

Oh, and NFC Playoff tickets go on sale today at 10am. Not a huge football fan...but NFC title game? Maybe I'll give it a shot....*UPDATE* I tried...but they sold out in 2 minutes. I kid you not. Oh well. :)
