Apr 23, 2026: set collector
Another sunny (ish) day, another walk to a mailbox when I need to get away.
Who else do you know that gets caught taking a selfie with mail trucks by postal workers? Just me?
Outside of making other humans wonder what the hell is wrong with me, work was frustrating today. We just trip over our own dicks left and right. Basic shit still gets in our way while we learn how to effectively work together.
So much changes day to day - it is just hard to keep up. We've got to give each other grace. I've got to give them some grace. Fuck, though. We're better than this.

The set collecting adventure continues. I love a trade that also forces me to get out the binders. Almost two full pages of james wiseman cards in the Chronicles set. Too bad he's trash.
Another inbound trade, another big day for set collector. I'm pleased with how this portion of the site is starting to fill out (not so pleased with how it looks). Lotta cleanup work in the blog to bring it up to today's standards.
I don't chase brewers cards all that aggressively, but in this case I couldn't resist this 2002-Fleer Tradition Update - Glossy #U399 Richie Sexson numbered to /200.
Then I scored this nice mid-90s on card auto from kenny "the jet" smith. Any deal with autographs going back and forth is neato mosquito. Especially, if the auto coming back is from the mid-90s like this. I don't come across these all that often.
We interrupt this broadcast for some green and gold. lulz

Like I said though, it's a good day for the set collector. My basketball boxes are beginning to run out of room again. Ever changing, always evolving.
