As soon as I start really doing well, I always seem to fall back into bad habits. It’s tough to have positive and negative triggers. Have a tough day, trigger. Have a great day, trigger. Have a blah day, trigger. I can say that at least I have begun to recognize my triggers. Unfortunately, because they span the spectrum, it’s hard to avoid them. However, since I can identify them, it comes down to my choice to succumb or overcome. The problem is that too many times, I take the easy road. Wanting to do better is not enough. It’s time I just do better.

The toy companies seem to be doing much better when it comes to collectors. It wasn’t that long ago that they seemed to think kids bought most of their toys. Now we get almost solely “fan-based” offerings. Who would have ever thought we would get a Jedi Temple Guard in Black Series? Remember, it was supposed to be for only the most popular characters. Transformers has explored every timeline and media, but we’re finally getting a definitive Megatron (kind of). While I keep trying to cut down my Classified purchases, they just keep pulling me back in. Even Mattel, which has always been fan-centered, has gone the extra mile with the new Fright Zone.

Not bad meaning bad, but bad meaning good…Slick
