TURTLE POWER!

I'm pretty happy TeeFury has finally decided to print something that I actually want to buy! Growing up in my generation means you know very well who the Ninja Turtles are, in fact...I bet you were one for halloween one year. Leonardo was always my man. This shirt uses a unique technique to make it stand out more than other Ninja Turtle-esque shirts designed by others. I really like it.

At this point, I have received all of the shirts featured in previous entries except for the Devo Robot shirt from woot on the Saturday I was in Canada. I hope I get that one before I decide to do laundry tomorrow! It's late...bed time is NOW!

Teextile Shipping Update

Today, I received my "Starving for a Hug" tee from teextile. They seem to get shirts to you in about a month. There are TONS of alert boxes all over their website about shipping and how long it could potentially take for you to get your shirt(s) now. Anyway, the shirt rules...it's a really awesome color...I only have one other shirt remotely close to the color of this tee and it looks awesome! I can't wait to sport this one at work =)

There is a Threadless "heatwave" sale now (a lot of tees are just $5!), but none of the shirts I wanted from last week are on sale...I may wait even longer to pick these up...

That's it for now...only one sport today, but two tomorrow. I can't wait to play hockey again!

I'm Sorry / Tickle Pickle / Do the Robot!

Sorry for the lack of updates this week, as it has been an awesome week for shirts! I am currently in Toronto for a hockey tournament and it's awesome here. I got to see the Stanley Cup yesterday and a bunch of old school hockey paraphernalia. I'll be here until Monday and I hope no one else asks me if I want "gravy on my fries" or "cheese on my toast". All three of these were woot purchases; from Tuesday, Wednesday, and today (Saturday)!

Shirt #1 for this week: "I'm Sorry" from Tuesday's shirt.woot:

This shirt rules for various reasons. The main reason being this photo that was taken between my freshman and sophomore years of college when I escorted a friend of mine around Philadelphia:

Shirt #2 for this week: "Tickle Pickle" from Wednesday's shirt.woot:

It took me all day to figure out if I wanted this one (mostly because of the Lemon Yellow tee), but after I realized that I smiled every time I looked at it, I got it. Totally cute...and...I totally love pickles. The bird on top is super cute, too. Rock and Roll. Two Woot! purchases in a row!

Shirt #3 for this week: "Do the Robot!" from today's shirt.woot (Saturday):

These guys look like the dudes from DEVO, which is hilarious. This design won 2nd place in Woot's "Dance" derby and I love the crap out of it.

There were a couple Threadless shirts I wanted to get this week, but I may hold off until they have a sale...I'm not exactly a fan of paying $18 for a t-shirt...we'll see.

Love is Simple

So, after deciding to buy pretty much every Akron/Family album on vinyl from their online store in honor of the release of their 4th full length album "Set 'em Wild, Set 'em Free" today, I snagged a sweet tee as well. I was mostly stoked that they stocked xs American Apparel shirts...and these are those super soft tri-blend track shirts (50/50 mmmmm).

Also note: it's not gray...if you know me, gray is a problematic color when a) it's summer or b) I'm drinking. Sweet. They're playing a show tonight in Cambridge...and in about 30 minutes they're doing a "special acoustic set" at Newbury Comics at the Newbury street location downtown. Buy the new album! It sounds awesome :)

Starving for a Hug!

I'm starving for some lunch right now...but will hold on that for a much needed update. Nothing last week in the t-shirt department tickled my fancy, but this week seems to be starting out just fine with this cute tee from teextile.

Other than the ridiculous amount of time it takes for one to receive a tee from teextile (which they so conveniently decided to explain when you check out now...kudos!) I have no other issues with this place. And here's a plus: if you vote for the design, they ship it to you free! I actually voted for this one a while back, so I get to save a couple dollars on the shipment....awesome. Not too shabby for a Monday...especially since I'm suffering from some sort of allergy / cold combination. ROCK AND ROLL.

Robotz R hUmann!

Uh, so I forgot I even bought this (due to my busy weekend?) totally awesome woot! shirt. It goes along with the robot "theme" in my last post, haha. NICE>

Totally cute. Hopefully it won't take shipping notification emails for me to remember to update my blog in the future ;)

The teextile tee yesterday was cute. I picked it up...the thing that did it for me was the stars...and the fact that I didn't really like any of the other tees on teextile this week. It's called "Flying Robot". Raaawrrrr.

I'll give an update on the whole shipping fiasco with teextile. Saturday, I received the "To the Stars" tee...still no sign of "Cranberry Tree", though. Actually...while looking at this tracking information, I realized they emailed me two shipping notifications for the two "To the Stars" shirts I ordered. I ordered the shirts on Monday, March 23rd...teextile shipped them on Monday, April 13th...and I received them on Saturday, April 18th. Business day turn around = 19 days. At least shipping across the country didn't take too long....but I'm still waiting for the shipping information on the Cranberry Tree tee...by these calculations, I should receive notification of shipment for that on April 29th, haha.

That's all for now....the Woot shirt today was pretty cool but I don't really want to buy it.
