Going...

Made up another 16 pre-order packets this morning; mailed 8 before my walk (3 miles by Los Gatos Creek).

Went out shopping with the chaoswolf for shelving (the Container Store is having a 25% off sale) and a floor lamp. Mission accomplished.

Shipped 7 packages this evening (two were multiples). This brings me up to 9F on the pre-orders. After that it starts getting interesting, because some of the letter combinations will want to get saved out for specials (BA+BE, CA+FE, DE+AD -- I'll happily take suggestions).

There are a small number of low-numbered sets that I reserved, a handful of undelivered envelopes (some of which will get hand-delivered over the weekend) and a couple of unsold sets sitting around. But this means I've packaged up and shipped about 150 pre-orders, with 23 left in the queue. Several of those are "interesting", mostly meaning international orders. But I'll probably finish mailing them by early next week.

So there are still 60 or so sets left in the signed limited edition. And if you just want a copy or three of Coffee, Computers, and Song! to listen to, they're available on CD Baby.

If you've already gotten your CDs, let me know how you like them. And what I can do better next time.

I vaguely recall pre-ordering (please let me know offline if I didn't!), so I'm looking forward to this!

I have a mailing label for you -- it'll be shipped with the Tuesday morning batch, so you're likely to have it by Friday (turns out that First Class is cheapest for 1-2 disks). I missed a couple of days' mailing last week due to doctors' appointments and meetings.

Yes, first class is *defintely* cheapest for 1-2 disks, and furthermore that quantity is low enough in weight that if you know what the postage is, you can affix it and stick it in the outgoing USPS mail at work. At least, I was able to do that where I worked, and it sure was convenient.

Larger orders and songbooks had to be taken to the PO, but having the alternative for smaller orders might be a help.

I'll have to figure out the best way to afix nearly $2 worth of stamps -- the new rates for oversize mail are a pain. Or figure out how work wants to handle personal use of their postage meter.
