Hey everyone. Im still alive just that life has taken a turn for the better the past 2 months that I just dont have the time to drop by like I used to anymore. Between work, working on the car I just bought, trying to get back into doing tattoos on the side, and a personal life with someone Ive known for 26 years, theres just not enough time in the day to deal with a hobby. My collecting has come to a complete stop right now, SW and comics. I had to re-think my priorities right now and think about the future. Plus depending on how things go in the next few years, there may be a move in the works on top of it, out of state that is. So yhea, every hour Im awake, I have something going on. Week ends, Im always gone till at least 2 am, most week nights till 11. But all in all, Im enjoying life again for the first time in 10 years and I want to make the most out of it. Im getting to old not to. But Im still not as old as Tim is. J/K bro. Just cause you went to school with Moses, doesnt mean your old.

Anyway, just wanted to drop a line explaining whats going on and where I am since Paul, artoo-detour, pm'ed me to see whats up. Like I said, I got new priorities right now that I want to see come to fruitation and Im not about to piss it away like I did before. That was a big mistake I did and regret it every minute. When your handed a second (or 3rd in my case) chance, you run with it and see what happens. I dont plan on fucking it up this time around.

Most hobbies goes up and down from time to time. Anyway, good luck, there for sure are a lot more important things then collecting toys

Good to hear from you Chris! Sounds like things are going really well & long may it last!
As you say, there are times when you have to take stock & change your priorities. The comics & bootlegs will always be out there waiting when you decide to get back into collecting.
Drop by when you can.

Yhea, for the first time in years, my head is actualy screwed on straight. Better late than never huh?



And thats the new car. 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Was good to catch up again, glad all is well

Great to see you pop back in to say hi. I was contemplating having to join a freakin comic forum to see where you were
Car looks like fun. But most importantly "Im enjoying life again"

Hey, AJ. I haven't been on the comic forum for awhile either. I just dropped out of everything period to deal with everything going on. This month has been going to good to slow down so i haven't. Couldn't ask for anything better besides a million dollars.

Couldn't be happier for you Chris. It's so great to see that. Sounds like you're in 100 directions but they all seem to be leading to good things! Smart to put stuff like this on hold so you can pursue the high priority things.

My only comment on the car is I better never see/hear of you doing that "seat dance" like in the commercials for the eclipse. That is unacceptable

Try to drop a line when you can and again, congrats congrats congrats on so much good heading in your direction. Well deserved pal.

What kind of comics did you (or are still) collecting?

Paul and I were wondering the other day, where you have been hiding out lately.

I am happy to hear you are on the bright side of life right now.

Enjoy the ride, and keep things on the postive trail!!!

Cheers

Finest, i collect everything comics. I was trying to get one of every issue out there. But like i was saying all that is on hold for awhile. Jown, there won't be no happy dance going on here. White boy done dance to begin with.LOL

Enjoy your break

I am. Its been long over due for me to take a break from it all. I've been contemplating it for awhile but didn't really have a good enough reason till now. Its one of those things you just have to know me to understand. I've been here from the start, so giving it up wasn't an easy decision to make, but one that had to be done.

Don't let him fool you guys. The car belongs to his 85 year old spinster neighbour, he gave up SW and comics to collect doilies, and the new love interest is an inflatable Ewok he bought from a very questionable looking website.

But seriously there Toxic, it's good that you're getting along well. All the sappy posts on FB show you're happier than a Canadian at a maple syrup convention.

Yhea, and i never was that sappy before. Its weird to see it myself, but worth even moment

I'll make this be my monthly post and say congrats - glad to hear things are starting to shine on you again instead of shitting on you. Happy for you bud!

I know your still nuttier than a Port-a-Potty at a peanut party but I'm happy for you anyway.

I know one day all the stars and planets will align and our schedules will allow us to catch up again. Until then - Take it easy, keep it greasy!
