I have been able to restore my phone which gives me the ability to use the internet through the phone, so I have regained some ability to check in and use the site for the time being. I'm going to assume all eBay activity stopped. I did a check and it looks like you last set of auctions had some poor results. For now I removed my link to your auctions. If you start back, let me know. df1

I am again without any internet for the foreseeable future. I do steal access from time to time when I am around my girlfriend, but otherwise I have none and I expect I am going to be without far more than I am going to be with in the future. I am nearing the end of many situations for me and have pretty much given up the fight and accepted this is going to be my fate.

I can finally post something good. It feels like a long time coming. I came into 2014 determined to get my life back in a positive direction. I tripled my effort on finding a job. Every night I would put in applications. My success rate was mostly 75% ignored completely with 20% sending me decline letters and 5% carrying things further.
I don't want to jinx anything, but I'm too excited. As of today I was offered and accepted a job with a very big company. This is providing I pass the usual background check and drug screen which I believe shouldn't be a problem. So with all this said, I will begin working on February 17th. To my disbelief, I will be making the most money I have made since I left Panasonic in 2008.
It's been a long ordeal. I left my last job I just couldn't stomach on December 4, 2012. I've sold approximately 1,000 of my best comics and I lost my house. But I kept thinking that I'm 1 day closer to turning things around everyday. This doesn't promise me that all will be peaches and cream from here on out, but it does make me feel more like a respectable human being again and it's now back in my hands to get back some of the things I have lost.
I'm sure originally I will focus on things to get myself back on solid footing, but if all goes well, I will get back into collecting comics, but I will narrow my focus down to strictly well known keys and books with lots of potential and no longer collect anything that is a common comic book, not that I did much of that anyway. And I hope to go back after my Charlton collection some more. Luckily I didn't sell not 1 of those.
It's been a long, long, long, long time since I had anything good to report. But today was a happy day.

But today was a happy day. Congratulations on the new gig. It's truly a jungle out there these days, it's nice to hear things are turning around. Over the past half-decade, I too found myself without work, and then chronically under-employed... lost the house, almost lost my car... just about destroyed my marriage... but things are slowly turning around here too. Again, congrats!

Starting a new job has been the focus of my attention lately and going back to work after being out so long has been an adjustment to my routine but in a good way. But I have been sleepier and it has knocked my focus away from the board. The more my life returns to normal, the more I'll try and get back to working on the board. Please feel free to add anything if you'd like as that motivates me to post more as well.

I haven't had anything to say much... anywhere.

Comics just don't seem important to me right now. Also with the current state and me having a lot of my good books sold, it just doesn't seem to have my attention much these days.
