Yikes

Phew. The show's already over and I haven't been able to blog until now. Such a good day!

Made a whole bunch of actual genuine sales to living, breathing toy store owners who paid with actual, unexpired credit cards (see some happy buyers, left). A whole bunch more interested retailers took my price sheet and made encouraging noises about buying later. And a parade of random kids came by and -- unprompted -- demonstrated the awesome thrill of evolution. Love that!

Most importantly, I am floating in a sea of information, advice, inside scoops, tips, ideas, and energy. Great people all around. Yee haw.

Cajoled a big-time consultant to give me an hour or two of his time tonight for free. Yee-haw again.

I hope you rock this stuff out to the stores, and I am working on my wife (our buyer) to bring in your stuff to tree town toys (http://treetowntoys.com) here in Ann Arbor.
