I have done it...I must hit the post office this morning, and put my first official sold copy of my cd in the mail. I'm not semiprofessional any more, now I'm professional...I've always heard the first sale is the hardest. I hope it gets to where it can support itself soon. What a rush it is though, to produce something that some one else wanted. Feels good. Sorry, don't mean to sound all money motivated or anything, but I am trying to get my new career moving, and that was the first step.

How cold is the water in England?

In Switzerland it`s about 18-20° C

Woohoo! Congrats, Robert! There are few things more exciting than the first sale of a product you've created... enjoy it! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Attalus · 07-23-2005, 02:18 PM

Congrats, Robert. I hope that you celebrate properly

Ivelliis · 07-23-2005, 03:04 PM

Congrats on your first selling single Robert [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's about 18-20 degrees Celsius outside, so the water should be a bit colder than that. Not sure entirely.

In case anyone wants to know, I went to my doctors appointment on thursday, it went very well. Getting a specailist referal soon. One step closer to NHS(aka, cheep) treatment.

Ivelliis · 07-23-2005, 05:28 PM

Glad everything went well Q'alooaith! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I just found out that on WoW (I play a hunter) there is a very rare spawn that is...A PINK FLAMINGO!

Imagine, your an orc running into battle. Suddenly your getting beat on by a pink flamingo, who kills you! That would put everyone to shame!

Been looking for about half an hour and I can't find him. Going to try in the morning when I get up, hopefully it'll respawn tonight.

Any ideas for a name? I play on a roleplay server, but a good name to add more shame to the death-via-pink flamingo would be nice

Yep, I went and put the cd in the mail, and then went to my mom's wedding. Now I'm back to life as usual, waiting for the counter to start clicking away. I did discover one thing though, mailing cd's is expensive...2.95 for packaging, and postage. I had intended to cover that, but for $8.00 a copy, it's not cost effective. Live and learn...

Hi everyone! Slept in until 1-ish today... still tired. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I could've had a nap this afternoon.
