Or Ouch

I was more worried about the cut off time than anything else, and I wasn't getting much done. The thing is I accomplished a lot and I still have two days to go. I had a few more signed by Bill Sienkiewicz to add to my New Mutants collection. I cracked my second printings of Thanos Quest for John Beatty. The final signature I was trying to acquire was for a friend, and after three hours of waiting I forfeited my place in an unmoving line for J. Scott Campbell. Fortunately, CGC will be able to get them done for me, unfortunately not for the on-site for which they were so heavily swamped.

I hope that every book I pressed retains and the five raws I sent in hit the minimum 9.4 status that I hope for. They don't need to be 9.8's to be added to the newly created Bill Sienkiewicz set, but I do want to try to get them all signed. Three of them can also be added to my New Mutants complete set. I just have to decide if I want to turn over two more for J. Scott Campbell, even knowing one will not get a 9.8 at all.

I still have next week at ECCC, but now I have to be a bit more frugal. Once these shows are done I have three months to save for Wizard World in Philadelphia, but I don't think I'll be doing much in CGC. It's Baltimore I fear most, but I am getting a head of myself. Tomorrow is picture day. I will be spending time with Bagofleas again, but this time getting our picture taken over and over again. Stan Lee even requested our presence promptly at 2:00 and we plan to appease.

Thanks for Reading
