Apr 28, 2026: empty
In the ebb and flow of it all, I'm ebbing. Is ebbing a word?
I was in an argument with someone today. They snapped and yelled at me. On the merits they were flat out wrong. Factor in the general insanity of our day-to-day, plus some personal issues they might be going through that I didn't recognize in the moment, and ultimately, it's understandable why they were frustrated with me.
That isn't to say I'm blameless either. Jumping from meeting to meeting, support session to support session, and then in and out of topics constantly......I lose patience if I know the right answer and you haven't figured it out yet.
When I'm not actively pissing off everyone around me, I'm trying to do my best to improve everything I touch and see. That's mostly impossible, except with the only area that is a complete dictatorship: my collections. Even then, it's basically impossible.
Sometimes I'm just on empty.
All that whinging to say this: last night and tonight, it was patrick's's turn to be improved. All 176 cards were processed through and into the current system, and the snapshot was recorded.
Yippee.
PS......What's a The Ewing Theory?
First of two Canadian envelopes going out the door today is being sent to Chris. Little does Chris know it, but the return envelope is going to get someone inducted into my fake ass HOF. I wonder who it will be? lulz
I think we might have a canucks fan on our hands (thanks captain obvious).
Shouts to pavel bure and Chris.
Sandwiched between some Canadian Hockey deals, we sneak in some good ol' fashioned American football. I've got to be sure I don't get too international with it, might find myself deported. lulz
Looks like we've got a steelers fan in the house. I wonder what he thinks about this aaron rodgers situation.
This is our third deal together.
Here's the other side of that Canadian sandwich, this time with a top 50 trade partner, Kyle. Deal number eight is underway.
You know what's a bummer? When I can't find cards. There are two cards from the 1995-96 Topps hockey sets that have wandered off on me. Because it's more than one card, the odds are good these are around here somewhere......
......rather than chase down these cards, which could literally be anywhere, I sent over a few cards that are a clear upgrade over the ones I couldn't find. Plus, I owe a few PIFs. This isn't technically that, but at least it's adjacent to it.
Fun cards inbound.
