I spend a lot of time in Boston at my boyfriend's place and live an hour away. Any pins I purchase or trade get sent to my house. I've been in Boston for almost a week now and I know I have sooooo many pins waiting at my house, makes me want to go home!!! Lol I can't wait to look at them and put them with the collection they belong with!!! Everyone else gets this excited too, right? I'm not crazy?
:goofy:
 
Same here! (not with pins though, but just general Lion King stuff)

Since I got fired I spend more time at my boyfriend's, which is an hour away from my house, and I can't drive, so it's a 5-hour bus drive, and knowing whenever something eather arrived at my house or his house, makes the 5-hour bus drive so much more fun! haha

Most things do arrive at his place, because my room back home is far too small, and my mom has already commented me a few times, how my room is looking like a warehouse at the moment with boxes stacked everywhere :/ lol

Omg, I don't have a job either! So that's why I've been spending so much time at his place. Fingers crossed though, I find out whether I get offers from 2 jobs this week! Off topic, I'm pretty sure I'm the only one on the east coast, where it is almost 5am, still awake! My sleep schedule needs to be fixed!
 
Hehe. 11 am over here :p

Good luck with those 2 jobs, hope you get at least one of them!!
I send out mails every week, it's really depressing *sigh*.
Can't give up though, but I feel like doing so, it takes up so much energy.

Luckily we still have our collections that can take us into another world for a bit and forget all misery :)

I sent the applications for these in mid-November. But didn't hear anything until the beginning of the year, then there were the phone interviews, a month later the interviews, a couple of weeks later reference check...it's such a long process!!! 3 months of waiting, I'm ready to find out! I'll keep you updated! And the pins definitely keep me busy! Only problem is I want to spend money I don't have on them! Another reason I can't wait to get a job! More pins!
 
Wow, that's a long wait ... of pure agony ... *cringe*

Same here, my watchlist on ebay is always filled with the maximum items you can fill it with (200) o_O haha.
Luckily I sometimes forget about some items, so I don't spend any money, but some items, I just have to have :/
I do have a special piggy bank with special savings for things I would like.
 
I get so excited for mail days, I've been known to get out of my car too fast, slip on ice and totally face plant. I am the definition of grace and elegance. :D

Also, not to derail, my Massachusetts friend, but are you coming to our event on 3/10 in Burlington?!
 
I've been anxiously waiting on some pins since the 4th. They said it could be up to 20 days, but was hoping to have them by now. There should be another delivery soon too. Fun! lol
 
I am the same as I get all my pins sent to my home whilst I am at university so when anyone visits me I always ask them to get my post from home as I normally go home once a month if that :( I get to the point if I have a months worth of pins waiting for me I cant sleep the day before I go home because I am just that excited.

I'm the definition of grace and elegance too!!! And I didn't know about the event, I will totally be there!!! What are the details?
 
I GET PSYCHOTIC!! My neighbor always laughs because on days when I know I am getting a pin I like stalk the mail truck until he delivers to our building. I am ESPECIALLY freaking out because one of my grails is coming this week... and I am having anxiety about it.
 
I get super excited when I have pins arriving in the mail. I love mail days. Ebay has sucked a lot of money out of me the past couple of weeks so I am patiently waiting to get the pins I ordered.
 
I can ver much relate!


I hope I can share my excitement here, it would be somewhat appropriate to share...

i just bought the first two years of the piece of Disney history complete sets for $515. It may seem expensive but some of those pins are hard to get. Like the PODH 10000 leagues under the sea pin. Anyhow I'm happy with the purchase and looking forward to get several other trade pins in the mail :-)
 
Ooh I totally understand. I'm actually expecting quite a few at the moment and I forgot there is no mail today since it's President's Day and I just cannot stand having to wait two more days (Since I all ready had no post on Sunday) for my babies!!
 
I am totally on the same boat as everyone here. I have made quite a few Ebay purchases recently so every day I am totally excited about checking the mail.

Glad to know I am not the only one racing to the mailbox =)
