1 milestone accomplished

I haven't written a journal in sometime now, but this was something definitely worth sharing.

I have been sitting comfortably in the #2 spot in the J Scott Campbell registry for quite a while now. Knowing that i was fast approaching my 100th book for my main competing set, i had started thinking back in September about whether or not i should, or even could, make my 100th book something really special. I wanted too, but i knew it would happen around the holiday season, and i had no idea what my $$$ would be like.

When i hit 95, i had 4 more in the mail. And i stopped. Right at 99. Sure i bought other books, of course, but i realized that i really did want to make the next one stand out. So i waited almost 3 weeks. And after all the hair pulling, and the "hmmmmmmmm naaaaahhhh" -ing, i find the one that made the most sense. Courtesy of Mayor006, i am the very proud owner of my first 10.0. An Oz #1 10.0 SS Campbell/Ruffino. A perfect 10 for book 100 was, well, perfect. The price was just too irresistible. And the day it came in the mail happened to be my birthday. Couldn't have asked for anything more.

Thanks for reading,
