Snore Fest

So, this blog has been extremely silent as of late. I also owe a few people my end of trades. I hate that both of these are true, but unfortunately things have mostly been out of my control. Lately, I’ve been fighting a losing battle with sleep apnea and it’s affecting every aspect of my life. Most days, I go to work, come home, fall asleep, eat dinner and then pass out for the night. Even when I’m not tired to begin with, things like looking at cards or reading a computer screen quickly make me tired.

Hopefully there’s an end is sight. Last night I had a sleep study done to try and find out exactly how I can end this. I’ve got my follow-up appointment in two weeks and hope to hear some good news. That being said, it doesn’t excuse the tardiness of my trades. It sucks and I know it. I’ve got a few trades that I’ve been waiting months on and I know how frustrating it can be. I want to promise that at the very least, if I’m unable to complete these trades that I keep the people involved updated. That being said, I want to get these trades completed as soon as possible.

In the meantime, I’ve been picking up a few things on eBay, got Gene Conley’s autograph at a local show and busted a box of 2012 Opening Day (which I loved). I finally got my replacement cards from Panini for the Cheryl Miller autograph and I’m extremely happy with them. Hopefully there will be more on that later. So for the lack of anything lately. Hopefully I’ll be back to my old self soon.
