I’ve started browsing over my old blog posts, which brings back a ton of random memories.
- My first ever blog post was in November of 2005 and I actually made nine blog posts in November and December!
- As of the 11th of that month, I had:
- Filed for sales tax license online
- Decided against fictitious name registration at that time because of the fees
- Looked at tax implications of for-profit vs. hobby income
- Printed up business cards
- Set up a new e-mail account for DippyDye [How odd – when did I make it plural, or was it a typo?]
- The studio space was under construction
- I left the job at the museum and started looking for something new
- My first wringer washer was powder-coated and started going back together
- I got a wringer manual on eBay
- The book OPULENCE: The Kimonos and Robes of Itchiku Kubota arrived, also a purchase on eBay.
