And It has Arrived

or I wish I could trust my Postal Worker

 

For a little over a year now I have had to send my books to my parents house, well not actually just books but any package. After four went missing and the third only showed up because someone forged my signature I like to have them shipped to my parents. Of course this means I have to wait a little bit longer. My Incredible Hulk and X-Men books have not only arrived in Philadelphia but they are sitting comfortable at my parents and I might not be able to get them till.....Wednesday.

 

It's weird, I have no problem with a five month wait for CGC to go through the process of grading my books but five days at my parents place is building up the tension of so close but so far. I lost sleep today hoping I could take a train down, even wasted time to see SkyFall, OK not a waste, I enjoyed the movie. The package finally arrived at 7:30 PM and I thought for a sliver of a second, sorry guys, I have to go an emergency just occurred.

 

Now the weekend is about to begin and I must make the money I need, I hop I can find someone who want to give up a Saturday shift because I could use those extra funds to help pay for that beautiful copy of Sub-Mariner #38. Oh and by the way Surfer99, right after I add this book to the registry, guess what position I fall into. Go ahead take a look, I fall directly behind you.

 

 

 

If all goes well, the next book I will be adding to the registry will be my Marvel Graphic Novel #4. I hate putting the books up before I get them in my hand. How about you?

 

Thanks for Reading

Um yeah, that is a pretty random pic, . People are funny, but looks like they're having fun.

 

I know what you mean about your books being so close. When a box arrives and I get a post it that says it is being held at the UPS office after a certain time, I make the 20 minute drive as soon as possible to pick it up that night so I can get it my hands!

 

I also don't like to add a book to my registry until I have possession. In fact I have a couple right now that I still need to add, but I wanted to write a jouranl about one of them first. I don't know about you, but I like to re-read the book once I receive it as well, just to remind myself why I wanted the book to begin with. As far as points go, you're already ahead of me so how can adding a book cause you to drop in the rankings? Unless there are a number of books you're planning to remove from sets maybe?

 

Can't wait to see your graded/signed X-men 109!
