Vinyl Decals are now in the shop and my cousin is at Rodeo Drive

I feel like I've been neglecting my blog a bit lately.  I'd said it has to do with me working an entire week and the extremely spring like weather we've been having.  I also had a baby shower to help organize and go to on Saturday for my sister in law.  But...one thing that I haven't been neglecting lately is my shop.  I've added a few new cards (I posted one last week on here) and I also have been adding some vinyl window decals.
I just placed an order for a new shipment of vinyl that should be here by the middle of next week.
I'm starting slow as far as sizes for the vinyl decals.  I need to order some packaging materials because right now I can only accomadate for decals 6 inches or smaller.  If they're any bigger I have to take them to the post office and get something to put them in.  I'm planning on making a trip to office max or staples to check out some of their postal products.
I also am looking into buy an external hard drive.  Does anyone have any good advice as far as size and brand?!?  It's something that I really need to get soon.  With me making alot of vinyl art I'm really craming my hard drive full of stuff.  I obviously need to keep all that saved but I really don't want it on my laptop.  When August comes and I start school I want my laptop to have as much free space on it as possible so it works nice and fast while i'm at school.  So if you guys have any advice for me, please let me know. 
Whale.... (hehe) I'm off to watch a movie with my hubby.  Did I mention we got High Definition?  Let me just say its AMAZING!!!  It's not "iPhone Amazing"... like "i can't live without it" but it's definately great.  I've always squinted to be able to see the TV because I have crappy vision..but seriously now...I don't have to squint at all.  It's so crazy.  You should definately look into it.  DirecTV has a sale going on right now.. FREE Installation, FREE Equipment...only $9.99 a month. Pretty Sweet Deal!
Oh...and my little cousin, Derrik, is in Los Angles this week on Spring Break.  Today he texts me and says "Rodeo Drive Baby!!"  What a jerk!! I'm so jealous!! I've wanted to go there FOREVER! haha  I told him to be on the look out for paparazzi...because if you see them...you'll surely see someone famous.  I'm hoping he gets me a picture of Britney's Star. hehe  I also told him he should go up to some fancy shop on Rodeo Drive and do the whole "Mighty Ducks Skit" where the boys tell the people at the store their Aaron Spellings nephews and they get to go in and see all the models try things on and get free drinks and stuff. haha
