Sadness

Sigh. It seems as though there comes a time when God - or whatever higher power you believe in - tests you with all of the things life deals you. For me, it's been a major upscale battle these past few months. If something bad could happen to someone, then it's happened to me. Now I'm in a situation where it looks as though I'll have to part with my Extended cards from my collection so I can have a vehicle. Our mini-van's motor "blew up" Friday afternoon and we still owe the car lot for it. My only income is from disability and what I make from playing Magic, which isn't that much, since I started playing more casually and less competitively. This makes affording a new card difficult, but sometimes sacrifices must be made. It's just that I have a lot of love and time and fun and joy and pride put into my cards and I know once I sell them, I won't get nearly what their worth. Just to give you an idea of what my extended cards consist of - this is roughly less than one third of them - check this.

This is just stuff I can recall off the top of my head. Essentially everything to build all of the competitive decks in extended -3 Goblin Piledrivers is what I have. I'm keeping all T2 stuff. I know I have TONS of foil cards, because that was my thing - foils! - and yet here I am saying goodbye to so many cards.

Life sucks sometimes.

Love,
