Five random baseball cards, all with baby powder poured out on each. A near-empty bottle of baby powder is in the background.

This relaxes me. Don't get me wrong, I wish all cards had Heritage or Ginter stock, but for those that don't, this is the life of an autograph collector.

I changed my clocks last night. My bedroom alarm clock is in my living room, and my grandfather clock is now on my nightstand.

Please bring back the cards. I really enjoy getting them signed.

I'm not a fan of military parades. It's not because I'm unpatriotic. I just think it could set a precedent for futture Macy's Thanksgiving Day parades.

The back of the baseball card shows that it is number 04/10.

Four months ago, I pulled my first-ever redemption card. it arrived today.
128 days to wait for an Ichiro/Shohei Ohtani autograph was worth it, I suppose.

A member? So, is he not worthy enough to mention his name? Just clickbait?
I'll save everyone the trouble. It's Mark Bradley.

I'm currently watching the series. I was far too young when it was released, but I thoroughly enjoy it now. I have 160 episodes remaining.
Maybe it'll be explained later, but I'm in the part of the series where you dress like Mary, and no mention of it has been brought up.
