I'm Sitting Here in Numis-Heaven and All I Want to Do is Go Home.

poorguy

I've been cataloging coins, and selling them while I'm writing them up, for 3 straight days from what we came back with from Long Beach and it's 7:30 PM here and I've only got 9 coins left to catalog. Tomorrow, I'll be imaging them. I've got a mountain of coins here to play with and I never thought I'd say this but my brain is numis-fried and I just wanna go home, take a shower, play with the kids for a bit, and go to bed. Too much of a good thing I guess.

Do you ever get mentally fried doing what you love?

There is a certain point where even hobbies become work. That's when it is time for a break.

Go home.

EricSan

Brandon, I am here to relieve your burden - send them to me and go home to play with your kids

You obviously need a break. Take a few of those shiny metal bits and buy youself a Slurpee at the nearby 7-11....

Man, I've been there and I feel your pain. The only problem is, mine was a mountain of copper.

By nearby, he means near me.

I don't think the 7-11 takes seated dollars and Early Half Eagles.

They probably don't even take the washington dollars!

Well, the thing is, I've got to get these up, cataloged, imaged, and listed on all of my venues before the next group of a hundred or so coins comes in later this week.

<< <i>It's a lonely life I live and I live this life to go
and if I leave you with one thing it's just that I want you to know
I'll still be loving you tonight.
I left flowers on your table, left the lock on your door.
Staked a claim in your heartlands, put grain in your store.
I'll still be loving you tonight.

Got fingers on the button of that telephone dial.
Call in and move your mountains, fill your spaces while
I'm still loving you tonight.

You want to know how I can leave you?
How can I move along this way?
Too much of a good thing can make you crazy
and it's a good thing that happened to me today.
I'll still be loving you tonight. >>

Let me guess. Adrian is on vacation in Jamaica?

Nope, probably asleep.

I'd limit it to 6:00pm max and go home earlier.

That kind of attitude won't get the work done. Whoopish!

I'm done now anyway so I'm going home. I'll probably be here this late tomorrow night doing imaging. I came up with some neat ways to put these pictures in my descriptions. HAHA. Yeah, I'm going nutz. I just like to throw some funny stuff in my descriptions to keep them fresh, and well, funny.

OK, emergency strategy comes into play here. Doctors orders: 10 hours of uninterrupeted sleep.....start the project.......no drinking at the bars or hanging out with the boys until the task is finished. Once the task is finished, party hardy.......and start buying coins at a good price again. Disclosure: I am not a real doctor...just play one on the computer

I have been there and done that working late so I understand where your coming from. But I am convinced now that my family deserves more time. Just my 2 cents.

notwilight

I go home at 4:30, pick up the kids and play/feed/read with them. I sell coins after they're in bed.

That's one nice looking sombrero hat!
