I know, its been FOREVER since i had a meaningful post. Well here i am, back in the saddle, ready for more. ๐Ÿ˜€
I recently recieved a box of “James Bond Mission Logs” for the big break coming up soon. And a few cheapie autos as well…
From DS9, Penny Johnson Jerald (as Kassidy Yates).

and from the very first episode that i watched of the original Star Trek, “Shore Leave”, a lady by name of Emily Banks.

So there’s my big ol update. ๐Ÿ™‚ Cant wait for June to get here. I get off of work, have my big break, and get to do a group break with some friends on the NSC forum. Very cool! ๐Ÿ˜€

Heh, i just had to make another post because this came to me a second ago.
Ive actually really been depressed for awhile now. I live in a terrible neighborhood ( the other day just outside my window someone was selling drugs to this other guy. >_<), i really really want to make more money to buy my mom a house in a nice neighborhood. It seemed sometimes that id never get out of this rut (i save as much as i can then something breaks or happens or whatever and sets me back).

short storyโ€ฆ
a year ago i had a very nice boss. He was actually one of the best bosses i have ever had. He was not treated very well by his boss. So he moved away to a city up north and it was a really important job (he would have more work but he would be the head of this place instead of second in command). A few months ago i found out he committed suicide. We never found out why, but i sometimes think that he saw the position up north as a "new beginning" as sorts. I can only imagine that his dream turned into a nightmare he couldnt take anymore. I get worried myself alot of times about that. That my dreams will become nightmares that i cant excape.
I drive by his grave almost every sunday and i think to myself "only a year ago he was still my boss and now he's lying in that grave over there.". It reminds me that life is too short. i CANT afford to waste any time hating the people i work with or worrying over the past because its EXHAUSTING. Shoot, im getting grey hairs worrying about stupid things and getting angry about nonsense. I hate my job, and i cant find anything else. I come home exhausted and not able to spend time i want to with my family because im too tired. Its awful and i dont know what to do about it.
But one thing i do know from that man lying in that grave right nowโ€ฆย life is WAY too short and you only get one go around. Now how to make it count.

Heh, i bet you all thought id died or something. lol
No still around. Still kicking. heh, barely. Times have just gotten so rough this last month. Had to pay $1k to repair my car, $200 to repair our A/C in our house, and a whole lot of other dumb little things that require all of your spending $.
>_< *sigh*
Well a couple good things did happen. A nice man had a sale on his Star Trek autos and i got a couple. Ill post them here as soon as i get them. ๐Ÿ™‚ I also am happy to say that i started a group break on my website i go to and its almost full! ๐Ÿ˜€ I saw so many times group breaks on the sports card sites and i was wondering if i could do the same thing with the non sports cards. So were getting a case of Rittenhouse Archives' "Complete Star Trek The Next Generation series 1" to break together! I cant wait! Im hoping that they would let me break the boxes but if they want the Admin of the site im cool with that. Thing is that were all getting together to have some fun and break some boxes! ๐Ÿ˜€
i really need this. Im kinda like getting into a depression and anything helps.
