Today marks the two-year anniversary of my first post.
I didn't even realize it until I read about another blog celebrating their birthday yesterday. I then realized my blog birthday was in February as well, and then I went back and checked out my first post, and sure enough, it was dated February 10th.
I don't have anything fancy planned to celebrate the mark. No contest or gift to myself. Just some personal satisfaction for keeping this thing alive, despite my five month absence last year. I remember after writing my first post, I went to a Knicks game that night, and while at the game I remember thinking that there's no way I'll do this for a very long time. While two years isn't long compared to most blogs, it's longer than I expected.
I'm sure life will get in the way again and I'll disappear, but for now, I'm enjoying being back and acquiring new cards.
Plus it's February. Pitchers and catchers report in two days. And I have a stack of TTMs ready to go. After all, my Topps Yankees Project needs to add 2013 to the checklist.
I collected baseball cards from the late '80s through 2002. Then I went to college and when I came out, I was lost. There were too many brands, sets, choices, relics, autos, parallels, variations. It was a turn off. However, I slowly made my way back. So here is my attempt to venture back into the hobby. I'll buy a few packs of cards here and there, comment on some cards I have, send out some TTMs, and follow the progress of my Topps Yankees Project.
Congrats on the anniversary ! Keep it up !
