Okay, normally I love cel collecting. I don't even 
mind losing out from time to time because it frees 
up funds for the next go-round. But UGH! For the 
5th time I have been beaten/outbid for a cel I 
really want and it's driving me CRAZY! To add 
insult to injury, I have been faithfully checking 
everyone's updates and last night my cable modem 
went on the blitz and of course that's when the 
update occurred. As if this were not enough, I 
caught Nick's site as he was updating, put in an 
order, and still did not get a darn thing.  

Whew! Now that this is all out of my system, I 
will try and get over it - I cried over this darn 
cel today and I DO NOT cry over inanimate objects. 
Well, hardly ever. :) 

And if anyone is interested, the cel was shirtless 
Spike from Ep 1 of Cowboy Bebop. There was a very 
nice collector who let me know that if ever they 
were to sell their cel from this scene that they 
would let me know (thanks - it gives me 
hope!)Uh...6th times a charm?!
