Shirts

Tequilacon is coming up in a couple of weeks and in preparation I ordered a couple of shirts from Land's End.  In order to make them super geeky I had delmer.com embroidered on each one — above the pocket on one shirt and on the left sleeve of the other (as I'm a Democrat). I paid an extra five bucks which I thought was pretty reasonable.

They arrived in the mail on several days ago.

As I was driving the eldest boy home from track practice I told him about the shirts and the ordering process.

"Wait," he said, stopping me. "You bought a couple of polo shirts and had delmer.com put on them so you could wear them to Philly to meet with a bunch of other people that write blogs?"

"Well, yea."

"Dad," he said, drawing it out so that it was more like daaaaad!, "You've got to get a life!"

Given the way the conversation turned out I wasn't sure telling him that going to Philadelphia was an attempt at having a life.

I would laugh if it weren't for the fact that I have shirts, buttons, and loads of other crap for my blog!

Oh I think it's a great idea! Then again, I am one of the freaks you will be meeting ;).

Dave: My boys are big fans of your crap. They all have their own "Zombies" shirt.

Hilly: I'll have to let my son know that two out of three people polled (wait, three out of four) think the shirts are a dandy idea.

Don't forget your other WADLL shirt, if it still fits?
(All members of this household posses Dave-crap too!)

Lady P: Jack is tooling around in the WADLL shirt these days.
