Well, not really loose $200, but it did get you 
here, didn't it...  Anyway, here's the story - 

Last night there was a bid coming to close on 
Ebay for a Bubblegum Crash cel of Priss from the 
first episode (she's clasping her hands and has 
her 'manager' at her side).  I've kept my eye on 
it from the first time it was listed, wanting to 
bid on it at the last minute like I always do 
(sorry to you folks who don't approve of this 
method of bidding).  

So, the bid closes at 3:00am my local time 
(geesh, and on a Thursday too...) so I went to 
bed an miraculously got up 15 minutes early 
before the bid ended - so I go and try and waste 
a few minutes looking at cels.org update list 
(evil invention that is...).  So clicking on 
thru, I see that Animaxis has updated its sight 
right before I went to bed (a few hours ago) so I 
poke my nose there and low and behold, they've 
updated their Bubblegum Crisis 2040 collection 
again!  

I quickly scan thru the new images and decide on 
the spot "Naw, I don't need that Crash cel... 
I'll just get some of these new ones on 
Animaxis..."  Forty-five minutes later and $220 
poorer, I've got like 6 more cels coming my way ^-
^

So, today, I'm tired, poorer than when I went to 
bed, but 'richer' in cels - a good trade off ne?  
Oh, and that BGCrash cel went for a low price 
too... but I'm not sorry I didn't bid - next 
time, next time...

buma-

(PS if this doesn't make any sense, sorry - I'm 
still tired...)
