Life has been pretty stressful and scary this month. Sara and I got COVID-19 earlier this month, it was our first time getting it. We got Paxlovid and after like 5 days I was feeling better, Sara was too but then she got rebound symptoms (which is common with Paxlovid so be aware of that if you take it) - except her symptoms came back way harder and scarier and she was unable to keep anything down for like 4-5 days, had an ongoing fever of 100-103 that whole time as well as having intense full body pain and migraines...etc I had to miss a lot of work, had to drop my classes for the semester because I got so far behind (currently working on a compassionate withdrawal though, if you don't know what that is and you're in school look it up! it's amazing and no one tells you about it! It's kinda fucked up that it's not common knowledge.) and I had to leave PHX Zine Fest last Sunday after only being there for an hour, so I could take Sara to the ER for the 3rd time in 4 days at that point. Sara is doing much better now, she is finally able to eat again, she is finally able to get more than an hour of sleep at a time without waking up in pain or in a puddle of sweat from a disgusting fever...etc I was able to work all 4 shifts I was scheduled for this week at my day job. Tomorrow we are going to try cleaning the dogs and/or the house! ANYWAY! I was planning on/expecting to make a couple hundred dollars at PHX Zine Fest which was going to pay for a good chunk of the next release that is coming out on Related Records. But because I had to leave after an hour or so, I have dug through my personal record collection and listed a bunch of records on Discogs. STICKERS & BUTTONS2 of my biggest sellers when vending is stickers and buttons, I get it, they are small, cheap, easy to carry, great for a cute little gift...etc but they don't typically sell very well online. A few weeks before PHX Zine Fest, I made a bunch of buttons and ordered a handful of new stickers. Since I was unable to sell them like I thought I would, I scanned and listed them here. Every little bit helps. Thanks for the support and the kind words from everyone who reached out. Full transparency, it was very very scary for a couple days, life isn't always great, but I am happy that it is sometimes and that makes me want to keep living it. I hope you do too. I am excited about these new releases and I think you will really dig them. I hope to have a pre-order set up for the first of three by the first week of October!
