After posting regularly and then semi-regularly and then erratically, things pretty much dried up the last few years. I didn't post at all in the last year, not even my usual silly Christmas Eve post or anything. A lot of things conspired to do this: life in general, my health specifically, photobucket pretty much ruining 90% of my work in the first five years of this blog, and then the anxiety and inertia of the more you don't do something, the more you don't do it even if you want to. It's a vicious circle.
I still collect with a passion and I still read a lot of your blogs and honestly, I do miss it. I miss the trades and the silly inside jokes and all that nonsense. Even though blogging is so passe in the year 2020 and this certainly wouldn't be the first time I have promised to come back and do more posts, I am going to try again. I have a lot of fun pages I have made - like this one of dudes born on February 29th. I have so many opinions to share with you that I know you are on the edge of your seat to read (how about those Houston Astros, huh?). And finally, the reasons I started this blog are still true: I love this stupid hobby and I want to share that with people who also stupidly love it enough to share it. So *fingers crossed* hopefully this is the start of a whole new round of blogging and I look forward to hearing from you and bringing it to you.
p.s. I do not miss scanning stuff. Ugh.
