Moobury.Com!

Yay! Launched Moobury.com yesterday!!! Abe worked really hard on it, along with a bunch of other friends that helped make moobury happen.  Excited to see where this goes since its earmuff season :)  But just being able to get it to this point has already made me feel so much better about losing those Burberry earmuffs I once cherished so dearly.

I know the weather is already warming up, but some places might still be cold right?  All of this was a great team effort and a ton of fun. Thanks to Jamie, Conx, Alexes and Nelly for the support!  I'm looking forward to project Moobury growing, and reaching more and more friends and family.

BEHIND THE SCENES

Earmuff-Shaped Hole.

     As some of you might know, I had a collection of Burberry earmuffs.  My goal was to one day have a walk-in closet with a entire rack dedicated to them.  And the accumulation of these earmuffs over the years were to mark my achievement/success in life.  Unfortunately Burberry discontinued making their earmuffs about 3 years ago, and with that I hit a dead end.  That is until Christmas, my boyfriend surprised me by finding two awesome classic patterned earmuffs on Ebay.  I was so happy and excited to realize my dream could still come true!

     Since the earmuffs bought off of Ebay were pre-owned, I decided it was best if I was to dry clean them before wearing them.  And for convenience sake, sent my other three Burberry earmuffs in as well for maintenance.

     I picked a dry cleaner down the street from my apartment, thinking that them being decently pricey meant that they would be able to handle my babies.  When I went to go pick them up a week later, I was informed that all five pairs of earmuffs were ruined.  *sobs*  Not only did they tell me my earmuffs are now "coiled and snake-shaped," they also offered very little for reimbursement.

     Each one of those earmuffs had a story, but I'll only bore you with one of them.  The first pair of Burberry earmuffs I ever bought was with Dave.  He took me to buy my first car, and that same weekend took me shopping for something nice I really wanted.   Prior to this I was only able to buy nice things for other people, and didn't feel like I deserved those things for myself.  Purchasing the earmuffs and the car (also something my parents wouldn't get me) was a significant moment.  I realized I was responsible for making sure I got what I wanted in life, and not to wait around.  That I deserved nice things too!  If I don't hesitate to treat others well, why hold back on me?  I can be just as happy as everyone else, I just have to let myself.

     I'm currently in the process of arguing with the dry cleaner about payment, but in the meantime I've been browsing Ebay for the same patterns to reappear.  The search has been pretty depressing.  Even if I can find the same patterns again, they won't have the same sentimental value. :(  Those earmuffs are irreplaceable.  And from my past search for stylish luxury earmuffs that was worthy of collecting, I've learned that there is no such thing.

    In conclusion, I have a earmuff-shaped hole in my heart.  I have decided that the only way to fill this void is to make earmuffs myself.  No dwelling for me, time to make my own earmuffs with my friends!  The process of perfecting a earmuff that I would be willing to wear in place of my Burberry ones, and building new experiences with my friends is the only way to get closure.
