Ebaying and my super special card space!

I now have a space in my room dedicated to opening and sorting through cards. Usually I did it on the bed. No, scratch that.... usually I was so impatient I would open the cards in the car. I wnat to be more organized though and not have cards in fifteen different places. I have a lot of loose cards in a bin I need to sort through currently.

Anyone else have a space dedicated to opening/sorting cards?


Ordered a hobby box off of Ebay today. Free shipping. I hope by free they don't mean placed in a big box with no padding where it is jostled around like a... hobby box in a big box. Guess I don't have a right to complain however.

I'm also bidding on a Chipper shirt for 99 cents

.0.99 CENTS!

I'm always so paranoid about Ebay though. There has never been an issue thus far, but I am a glass half empty type person and tend to fear the worst. I always check the seller's status... which is what I figure most people do.

Dreeeeeeeeaming and..... dreaming.

So I had a dream last night about getting a package in the mail. Yea, reeeeeeal exciting.

In my dream I was getting the mail and hoping for a package from a blogger. As dreams often go, it was illogical as one moment I was in my dad's front yard and the next, the mail was in my hand.
(like magic!)

But, I was sad to see that it was only bills.

Then suddenly, (like magic!) there was a pillow sized brown envelope in my hand that I had apparently "overlooked."

but... THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE PACKAGE! Not a thing. Zip. Nada. Nothing! Dream me was devastated and dream me kept rechecking the package to see if I had missed something.

And guess what?

GUESS?!

THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD HAPPENED!


The empty package was empty no more! Cards had suddenly appeared! (like magic!) Dozens upon dozens of cards! ....and they kept coming and coming and coming.

Then I woke up before the card avalanche could stop.


What does it mean?


Probably that I should get a life and stop thinking about cards so much.

I am a sheep.

I’m back finally. Computer still broke, but I’m using the one at my Dad’s and my uncle has an old one I can use when I go back home. Computers are great when they work, but pain in the rear that you feel like taking baseball bat to and throwing out ten story window when it doesn’t.

I’ve gotten quite a few packages from folks and I would like to thank all that have sent me something. I plan on sending thank you notes to those that have. Yes, thank you notes. I have no cards to give, so a thank you note is it. I should have been sent them out but I am the world’s worst procrastinator. What are stamsp now btw?

I bought my first O-Pee-Chee blaster a few days ago. I’ve gotten lose packs previously. Hoping to score me a Chipper as I really liked the look of his card in the set. I’ve only opened a pack thus far.

I also bought some lose packs of Allen & Ginter at Target on Saturday. I went in for a blaster but they did not have any. Oddly enough there was a guy there picking up a few lose packs of them as well. We talked and he said he hasn’t been able to find any of them around the area stores and neither have I. He did see some a while back at the Target we where in, but none since. Stop buying them so fast people.

That was the first person I’ve seen also buying cards. It was cool to see someone else though.

Those are the two sets I think I’m going to stick to this year. (Well, if I can find them) I can thank all the baseball bogs for my decision with both

Or mainly dayf for my choice in A and G. His enthusiasm enthused me. Plus they are nice looking cards.

Yes, I am a sheep just as the title says.

And I want me some Hockey cards. I have a grand total of one hockey card in a binder thus far. The only place I’ve been able to find hockey cards is at Target though. Granted I haven’t gone many places, but I would have though Wal-Mart would have something. None of the ones around me have anything though. I do live in the Southern United States though, not exactly Hockey country.
