Do you ever just...feel like crap?

Of course you do! Don't we all...once in a while. I like to think I'm a pretty darn positive person, but I still have times that I feel terrible. Whether it's because of something I have said or done, someone else has said or done, or for some inexplicable reason. Pain is prevalent. There is no escaping it. We will all be in poor spirits from time to time. The good news is that those times do not last. There is always hope at the end of the tunnel. There are people who automatically make you happier by their presence and comforting words, activities that help to destress you, and let's not forget the all-important God that we serve who is beyond our feelings. Are you stressed today? I know I am. I also know that God is faithful and as difficult and stressful as this moment is...there is always hope.

Long Time No Clickety-Click

Greetings reader (or, more likely, lack thereof)! I have returned to do some mindless rambling. Please join me in my self-induced insanity and we may ponder the world's greatest conundrums...but probably not.

I have been looking up a lot about comics lately because I was offered a bunch of comics to sell. I have got to give the owner a percentage of the profit, but I am pretty excited about it (it even got me watching the Batman Animated Series all over again). There are a variety of comics, but the majority of them are Spider-man comics, which happen to be among the most popular of their era (perhaps when I finish watching Batman, I will have to begin watching Spider-man). I have read plenty about grading comics and when to get them professionally graded, since your cannot really sell them without at least giving an honest grading of them yourself. I have only seen a little of the comics that he has. I am not sure about all of the specifics, but that has not stopped me from doing research.

I think I could probably get into comic book collecting, but I would want to start from someone who is selling their entire collection fast. It would have to be from someone who is more concerned about getting money fast than getting what it is worth. Not to mention that it would have to be from someone who has taken very good care of their comics. Grading is so important to price and I would want to get the most for my money. I have seen some comic lots on ebay that claim to be random, but I am quite sure that they send you a bunch of cheap comics: unpopular, poor condition, etc. I would want my start-up to be from a collector and not from some business that is trying to make money off of fools who want to start collecting...I have been pretty obsessed with this lately.

Enough about comics for now. They have ruled my mind for the last two weeks or so. How about marriage? That is an intimidating thought. Marriage has always seemed so far off and now it seems so much nearer. Not that I have even got engaged yet. I have really got to find that ring though. That should be an obsession, especially if I plan on proposing in the same time frame I have had in mind. I feel like getting all poetic about love. Do you ever read or watch something for a while and you get into that mindset? I have read Shakespeare and felt that everything I said must sound so smooth and poetic...no matter how far that was from the truth. However, I do believe that emotions are great fuel for writing. As long as they are raw and straight from the fingertips instead of being dressed up too much. I am so excited for this love to blossom even more and to spend a lifetime with the object of my affections.

Now that I have gone the cheesy route I guess I had better go. I will probably make a fool of myself if I keep going on. There is plenty of time to make a fool of myself later. What is this blog for if not for that?

Later, fool!
