Paula Update!

In case you missed it, here's Part I

I guess it worked because today, out of the blue, I received an email from Paula:

"hey...I got your emails and I am aware that you have yet to receive any pictures and honestly, I don't want to worry about it anymore. I am not a bad person, I just have been dealt a bad hand with personal problems lately and have not had the right oppotunity to get out and promote your items. But know you are tired of the excuses and I am trying to put my life back in order. So Please send me the bill for the shirts and I will just pay for them then this matter will be done with. Again I love your shirts, they are amazing and so are you but I just can't set a date for pictures so this is the easiest way for me to settle the matter. once you receive payment, I will consider us even. I appreciate your pateince and kind manner. You are very kind.

Sincerely and with regret
paula
ps..please ask your friends not to harrass me on myspace. thanks"

I love the PS - guess enough people read this blog and said something to her. I love it! Thanks!

She's given a million excuses, but I'm a nice guy...and a somewhat of a sucker, so here's what I wrote back:

"Paula,
I do not want the money. Just a word of advice - When you enter into an agreement, you should keep up your end of the bargain. That's what any responsible person would do regardless of their personal problems. All I ever wanted was a picture or two to put on the site to help promote my shop...I really didn't think it would turn into an issue.

I hope that you are able to get your life back in order and I wish you all the best in the future."

Nice right? Yea, I think so too.

Here's what I WANTED to write:

"Paula,
You had just as many personal problems when you first emailed me that you put on tv for the world to see. I'm very sorry you're so unstable. However, do me a favor...next time you plan on getting arrested, could you at least wear the t shirt I gave you because the mug shot would be priceless. "

But I didn't.

Anyway, she wrote back right away:

"i completely agree...I totally want to help promote ur site and business too...can I help by puttting a logo or banner or anything of burntees.com ? Also I am going on springbreak with a company for like 5 weeks where the weather is warm and there will be tons of people and opportunites for pictures....from amrch 3-april 7...i know its late but hopefully that will be my way to help with your business and my end of the bargain.
things are starting to settle and i have just moved and unpacked so fingers crossed the future and the new year should bring us both success...
thanks again for being so kind"

I am kind aren't I?

So I wrote back telling her where she could find banners (here) and that any pictures she does send at any point would be appreciated. I also told her that if she meant what she said about liking the shirts, anything she could do to help promote the site would be great.

So, that's what's going on right now. I guess all we can do is wait and see what happens next right? In the meantime, take it easy on her on MySpace lol.

Wow you're a control freak asshole! Good job buddy. Now go get the dick out of your ass long enough to stop being such a jerk. You acted like a complete dick over t-shirts when someone's life was in shambles. You need to get a life of your own, and a little thing called empathy. I think that woman was FAR too nice to you after you showed yourself to be a thoughtless dick again and again. Instead of accepting her last nice email and her want to make it right by purchasing the t-shirts you used it as a way to take YET another jab at her (because you have to prove your a man I guess) and then posted horrid things here about her. All over some t-shirts. Get a life jerk.

She could have just worn the t-shirts with some friends and taken a pic-would have taken 30 seconds. That girl's a mess, and her wearing the shirts would NOT make me want to buy them. She was so embarrassing on the real world. I wonder if she's still anorexic? I remember one time she said girls look at her and want to look that skinny...UMM no...she looked gross...I would have rather had Sveltlanas body...you can be thin without looking gross....Her anorexia made her skin look bad too...she just looked gross alltogteher, but I always thought if she put on some weight and stopped acting like such an idiot she'd actually be a cute girl.
