I had to drop everything and travel back to MI for a bit so the blogging has slowed down, but I hope to pick it back up in the next few days.<br /><br />Davehttp://hockeycardfanatic.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-180054214906698045.post-3485365251840072612013-02-02T03:30:36.928-05:002013-02-02T03:30:36.928-05:00I wouldn't have brought them in if it was a fu...I wouldn't have brought them in if it was a full office setting.

In fact, I only really ever had one friend that was into collecting to the same extent I am, and that was back in middle school. <br /><br />Not sure why, but I also don't necessarily mind keeping it a secret at work.

My wife knows, as does my family, but it's kind of something that I keep private for the most part. I have other activities/hobbies that I do share openly that everyone who knows me, co-worker or friend, is aware of, like playing guitar or playing poker. For whatever reason cards never come up and I don't necessarily mind keeping it that way...shoeboxlegendshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11642879419337014960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-180054214906698045.post-53891392813603006682013-01-31T11:22:55.430-05:002013-01-31T11:22:55.430-05:00And I thought it was bad here, that can't make...And I thought it was bad here, that can't make it easy not even having a team in your home state. <br /><br />By the way, I was just reading through your blog (not sure how I haven't come across it until now) and I like what you've done so far. Nice to see another Wings collector out there.

One of the guys I work with saw I was on eBay and asked what I was looking to pick up. I told him. He's into music and movies and collects stuff in that way. He kind of understood my passion for cards. <br /><br />Not long after I started talking about my collection to a couple guys and even though they weren't big into it, I decided to bring in my collection for them to look at. They were more shocked and amazed than they were laughing and making fun. <br /><br />I still get ribbed about my collecting, but I get the feeling they respect what it is I do. <br /><br />I think it's cool. bamlindenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18144916743107134577noreply@blogger.com
