     It was a crazy night last night, and I didn't sell anything.

     There were two drunk women talking loud last night.  Usually there is only one.

     I arrived late, at around 11 p.m. knowing that the early evening crowd wasn't going to buy anything anyhow.

     It is essential that I am there between 1 a.m. and 2 a.m., because I often get sales in this drunken hour.

     One time I made $200 between 1:50 a.m. and closing.  That was a good night.

     I never know when a sale will occur.  All I can do is be there.  Ready.

     "Are those coasters?"  I get asked this question at least once a week about my napkin art.

     They could be turned into coasters of they were laminated.  I have done it before with clear packaging tape.
     But I tell people I intend them as art.
     Then I have had a couple of people, usually from The MidWest ask me, "Well, what do you do with it?"
     "Well, it is art, and you hang it on the wall, and you look at it, and maybe contemplate your life or something."
