Spoke Into Existence

Shelf touches, slowdowns, shows and speculation

Putting in a new shelf a year or so ago for record show overflow, in the office, next to the retro game station. Nowhere to go from here but up!

It’s been kind of a slow putter around here this week. Doing two shows last weekend tired me out, and my meds have lowered my blood pressure a little more than they were supposed to, so I’ve been fighting through some fatigue to catch back up on things. I cut the one dose in half tonight for the first time, and the CD boxes are officially refilled to the brim and ready for Sunday, so as long as I restock some vinyl tomorrow I should be all good.

I’ve talked here before about the superstition of “touching the shelf” – selling something online right after picking it up out in the garage, or after noticing it and remarking on it while putting other stuff away. Tonight could potentially be the biggest shelf touch yet.
