A few weeks ago I received a flickr-mail from someone who was interested in using one of my
photos for inclusion on a website about a store in Austin, Texas, called
Toy Joy. And today I got another flickr-mail from the same person telling me they are using my photo. Yay! I’ll be famous!
The website is called
Schmap and the link to my photo is
here. Hover your cursor over “Toy Joy” until you see my name, Victoria Porter, come up under one of the photos in the upper right corner. If you click it you will be sent hurtling to my flickr photostream under the guise of
monkey123, my non-business flickr account.
I’m really excited about this. I guess it does not take much right now.
You may be asking yourself, “Hey, this chick lives in Rochester, NY. What was she doing taking pictures of toy stores in Austin, Texas?!” And to that I answer that I was visiting my best friend,
Joolie, in Austin and she took me to the best toy store I’ve ever set foot in, Toy Joy. It truly is a place of joy. Toys are all over from floor to ceiling. No space in the place is wasted. They have some really cool things and very obscure items. They have so much to choose from that I cannot make up my mind what to buy and end up leaving empty handed or with just a few small trinkets. Then later I rue that I could not decide and I curse myself. It’s nice to know that
Joolie is amenable to taking me there every time I visit!
Thanks,
Schmap, for making my day!!
