For a while now it has been gently pointed out to me that I don't "match." As someone who takes pride in co-ordinating her outfits, the fact that my blog url hasn't matched my name has been a source of some discontent.
So I investigated the possibilities of moving house, metaphorically speaking. Sadly my choices were limited because someone has taken stolen my name already.
So I've become "Ah the possibilities!"
and I now reside here:
This shouldn't affect any of you. According to blogger, you will all please god let this work or I will be devastated be redirected automatically to my new place. If you aren't I promise to come and find you :)
My facebook fan page remains the same because after all the stress of moving I'm too tired to get that changed as well! And if you haven't seen that one, the link is here
It means getting my blog header changed from "Oh" to "Ah" and my stinking cute button altered as well. My beautiful blog designer Danielle will fire me one day I'm sure.
As someone who HATES moving house, I've done it far too often over the years, this has been my least stressful move. I'm still setting up so there will be a few changes. I'm getting three columns because I have a number of you whose buttons I want to display on my sidebar, but there isn't room in its current state. If you'd like me to add your button make sure you let me know as well!
So I'm going to continue unpacking. While I'm working up a sweat please feel free to leave me a basket of welcome muffins or welcome note at my new address.

Sometime in December I decided to find out how long it would take to put together a set by simply buying wax packs. Of course, the holidays were fast approaching, so this became a project for after the madness passed. And now here we are.

A few days ago, I put out a message on Facebook/Twitter asking for help: Which set should I put together? The choices were 1981 Fleer, 1990 Topps, 1991 Topps, 1992 Upper Deck, 1994 Fleer, and a random 1980s Topps sticker set. I got a lot of response, mostly choosing a sticker set (5 votes), 1981 Fleer (2 votes), or 1990 Topps (2 votes).

After much deliberation, here's the set I'll be aiming to complete: 1982 Topps Stickers. I chose 1982 because of the availability of unopened sticker packs and unused sticker albums. After I complete the sticker album, I will attempt to complete 1991 Topps, a set I never liked and never bought when it came out. After 1991 Topps, who knows.

Here are the rules: No trading. No buying of opened lots on eBay. I will only buy packs. I also plan on tracking sticker/card sequencing in packs. I will then fill in each page of the sticker album as best I can. I still haven't figured out what to do with the sticker doubles, but I think some sort of public art around Boston will be on tap.

We're over 100 Facebook Fans, and counting! If you're a Facebook Fan of The Blog, glad to have you!

If you haven't become a fan yet, now there's one more reason to make the leap: I've uploaded a set of 50 scans of some of my favorite cards, with commentary on each.

I'll be doing some summer cleaning around here this week and next, dusting off old series and bringing out new ideas, so keep checking back. One thing I'd love to incorporate on the blog is video, but I'm not quite sure how to do that yet. I also didn't get my act together this year and therefore won't be attending the National next week in Chicago. I'll have to think of something fun to do on the Blog to make up for it...
