Time Goes By In The Blink Of An Eye!

Time Goes By In The Blink Of An Eye!

Today is my birthday, but that isn't what this post is about. It's about another special birthday, that of my beloved cat Jaden Yuki. On September 18th of last year, I had to sadly make the hard choice of assisting him in crossing the rainbow bridge. The night before being one of the most difficult and emotional ones in my life. Jaden kept experiencing seizures as he went into kidney and liver failure. I carefully held him all night getting maybe 30 minutes of sleep. The next day taking Jaden to the vet knowing all to well, that I wasn't going to come home with him.

On September 1st 2006, hurricane Ernesto affected Virginia. I will never forget the call from an exceptional woman named Carol, she was like a second mother to me. She too has passed sadly and is very much missed. Carol quickly informed me almost hysterically how "Ms. Legs," a stray cat we befriended had her kittens in the middle of a fierce hurricane! As it so happened, the local humane society had employed me at the time. After talking with my boss, Tonya she voluntarily agreed to foster Ms. Legs and her 5 adorable little kitties. I informed Tonya that I genuinely wanted the little black kitten.

The day approached when the kittens were ready to be adopted. Instead of bringing just the little black one, she came carrying all 5. Upon opening the carrier, four kitties came bouncing out, playing as adorable kittens typically do. Jaden, however didn't emerge. Tonya informed me that he was getting over being sick. She scooped Jaden up, then sat him in my lap. Jaden fell asleep all while purring loudly. He naturally chose me…

I enjoyed 17 wonderful years with Jaden and dearly miss him. I keep breaking down in tears while trying to type this up. He will be forever missed by both his adopted "brother" Jiraiya and myself.

I just wanted to do something to honor him by; a dear friend of mine suggested doing a memorial post here.

Jaden never did catch that Raven, but he sure did try. *lol*

Another Flashy Endless Treasure!

Something else, that I never thought to acquire, is now in my possession! *woot*

While the possible source of obtaining this was known to me, the likelihood of it typically happening was extremely slim. The source, a prize item from the same set as a certain ZR card I was naturally surprised to have located too. That set being "Endless Treasure 7, Grand Line 27 Year of the Dragon.

I was also under the impression that this was an enamel pin. *lol* Boy, was I genuinely surprised! It's in fact a magnificent large magnet! The open book containing it being almost as big as my nine pocket card binder!

Words can't express how sexy this is in person! *drools*

To give you all an idea of the appropriate size, allow me to use my favorite measuring system. A form of nontraditional measurement, my one friend refers to as "KAT Units." *lol*

Don't worry, Jiraiya gets paid handsomely in various boxes for his service.

Thank you for your answer and the tips for Temu! n_n It would be so kind of you to give me a heads-up but no worries if it's too much trouble.

You are certainly most welcome and no, it wouldn't be too much trouble at all.

What Does It Contain?

This precious box obviously contains none other then sexy Buggy goodies, and arrived yesterday!!! *woot*

I had sincerely hoped to post all the new gets today, but my silly body is feeling really drained. I've been this way after yesterday's Chiropractor session. Not sure why? It is a terrible feeling is all that I undoubtedly know. *cries* Maybe Thursday? Tomorrow is unfortunately filled with doctor's appointments for me.

As a fun bonus, here is picture of Jiraiya (aka The Grey Potato) snoozing happily in the newest box.

Back again with the Loof

I Love Me A Guy Who Plays Flashily With Knives!

Time for another card update! Admittedly, I've gotten a little behind on the new cards shares. *whoops* Today is naturally a good day to get caught up though!

This cutie is a serial card, #6 out of 58. The saying printed on the bottom is rather intriguing too: "Be like the sun, calm and happy, crossing the cruel sea for thousands of miles."

Another flashy freebie, which I hadn't obtained until now! The kind seller admitted, that I had cleaned him out of freebie Buggy cards. *lol*

My silly camera didn't do this card justice; it's such a lovely shade of radiant blue. I may try photographing this particular card again at some point...

I've eyed this rare card off and on for a bit, finally caved and bought it. Certainly glad to have done so too!

Genuinely, I truly thought this card lost! It kept bouncing all over the place and even got stuck at a primary hub in my own state for days! The poor envelope the card arrived in was beat to hell upon arrival! I have one other item left to share, but I'll withhold it for another post.

The next thing arriving will be three booster boxes of the new Four Emperors set. My fingers are tightly crossed to pull the super-sexy flashy card pictured above! OMG, looking at it makes me instantly drool. *yum* Though Buggy has received several other fantastic cards in the upcoming set too! Optimistically, I will ultimately obtain them all!
