Obsessive Behavior.. I just can't stop
How do I explain what it feels like to eat, sleep, and drink this store? It never ends. I spend my day staring at websites like www.jamesgirone.com and www.bubblenewyork.com looking for fabulous new and trendy upcoming brands to fill the store with. I get so caught up in this new world of "fun" I have to reign myself back in. My daughter gets on the bus to go to camp at 8:10. I'm off and running back to the computer to figure more store "stuff" out. 9AM comes and I can start making phone calls. This goes on for most of the day unless I am playing tennis or running errands.
Today at 9ish I called my landlord to be. He wasnt in the office yet. When he called me back.. I asked about permits..He said... Sorry the permits came back but they are the "wrong" permits. Still working on getting the "build-out" permits. Sigh.. here I go again. I have amazing store fixtures picked out. I can't order them as I dont have a space plan. I have this fabulous consignment software that will barcode everything retail and resale for me picked out. Can't order that yet. I have everything from the steamer, hangers, bags, tissue, bows, and wrap picked out.. cant order that yet. I have advertising going in Chicago Parent in August. Okay I did that. I have advertising going into Pioneer Press, cant start that. I have postcards being printed etc etc. You get my drift. I'm in a holding pattern.
My husband walks in at 7:45pm from the train and I want to talk about every vendor and every stupid minute detail of my day and he looks at me with such a look of helplessness. I'm sure he's thinking "feed me please..." Okay maybe my mouth doesnt stop running. I can't help it. I'm obsessed.
Thank God for my girlfriend in Knoxville She is my girlfriend from eBay. We met a few years ago and have been good friends. We discuss our girls who are the same age and our lives and our sickness for clothes. She owns www.thewhiteballoon.com. I bug her every free waking moment that she is online. Tonight I obessed over buying enough clothes per square foot. According to James Girone I need to be spending a ton of money for the retail side. I'm game. She tells me in polite terms to chill. I say phew!
Okay enough for tonight.
