    Highs; some RMs plus mini toyshop Convoys for fellow board members.

    Lows; My mum forgot to put the pens (which are also for fellow board members) in the parcel.
    And I couldn't find RM Smokesniper, so Gigant Bomb I got today is rather useless :(

    Highs: shopping trip! Hit 3 TRUs and decided to abuse that sale a wee bit. Probably should've gotten another yellow instead of red Scrapmetal, but oh well.

    Lows: hearing that the Botcon exclusives for the attendees will be extremely limited, therefore, most likely extremely expensive on the secondary market. Also, I cant go to botcon as usual, so Im a bit depressed.

    Highs: I leave for Botcon in less than 36 hours :)  and scored the 2005 Dairycon exclusive :D  plus 2 Brazillian GoBots...a red Hans-Cuff and black Turbo :) 

    Lows: I still gotta work tomorrow...and wish Julie was going to Botcon with me....but I've dragged the poor girl to 4 in a row, so I can't really complain (Her exact reason for not going was "dude, its Kentucky. Chicago, Pasadena, and Dallas were great......but seriously dude, It's Kentucky" :lolol  )

    LOWS

    - No new TFs on the horizon for awhile...going into withdrawals....
    - Took a swing at the punching bag at work today, missed and hit the wall instead. Now having trouble moving two fingers on my right hand.
    - Just sat through "Apocalypse Now"; I never thought it would happen, but I've finally found a movie worse than "Pulp Fiction".

    True, Thanks again! Now I got something else to look forward to! So that gives me even more lows. :)  (Im a very negative person, I know)

    Lows: Fortress Maximus, Predaking, and Botcon exclusives. Having to wait for em to arrive.

    Highs: Getting what Im getting in lows at all, which out weighs the lows altogether. :)

    Well, I'm a sucker for Spychangers anyway, and thanks to TFGraveyard I got a bunch of the others (Flatfoot, Pinchbottom & The Leader)...besides, paying what I did for Bailjumper is still cheaper than airfare from California had I been able to attend....
