Mega Mail Day: Part I
August 28, 2009
Sometimes I Love Saturdays
(…that’s right, I got these nearly one week ago. Deal.)
Seriously, this week has been hectic, and, dare I say, a touch crummy. I don’t just throw the word "crummy" around, either, so you KNOW it’s serious business. The best laid plans included one post per day each day this week. I was lucky to get even one done. Thankfully, I am afforded ample time to complete at least one more post for this week.
As I type this, there is a strange man upstairs attaching our new blinds to our freshly installed windows and freshly painted interior window frames. I can’t believe we’ve gone this entire time without blinds on our windows. Walking around the house au natural has indeed come at a premium. Well, and at a "heavy" price for the neighbors. Later in the day, another kindly gentleman will peruse the exterior portion of this once-foreclosed domicile in order to put in a bid to paint everything but the lawn. Basically.
Two hours of sleep the night before, waking up at 6:30am, then working from 11:30am straight until 10:00pm without break, then having to wake up at the buttcrack of dawn this morning sure has made me loopy. At least I’m only working a half-day today. Albeit the shift doesn’t start until 4:00pm and I’m sure to be there until between 10:00pm and 11:00pm, it certainly could be a heck of a lot worse.
Now that the incessant whining portion of the post has concluded, let’s move onto the happiness. Baseball cards! Yay!
This first post will be dedicated to reader, Betsy, who was in a great mood and was looking to clear out a little bit of personal inventory. That lead to my favorite: FREE CARDS!! She told me that no trade was necessary. Of course, I will be on the lookout for some basketball cards, worry you not!
She kindly sent along a couple of Crack the Code cards as well as a Hoaxes mini that I needed to get me just that much closer to seeing the end of this long Allen & Ginter Project journey.
Thank you very much, Betsy! I still have some digging around to do, but I’m pretty sure I still have those old B-Ball cards. They are definitely and without a doubt all yours once I find them!
